[driverloader] (no subject)

Hi,

in the output of the 'ip route' command in a root shell, we can see that 
the default route is not set to the wireless interface and this is the 
likely source of the problem.

In the output of the 'ifconfig' command in a root shell, we can see that 
you are able to send and receive packets with the wireless interface so 
the problem is not likely to be DriverLoader.

You can set the default gateway and route by editing the 
'/etc/sysconfig/network' file on Fedora Core based systems. 
Alternatively, you could try to use DHCP instead of static IP 
information, as the DHCP client daemon is likely to set the default 
route correctly.

Regards,
