My /etc/conf.d/net
Code:

# /etc/conf.d/net: Global config file for net.* rc-scripts
# $Header: /var/cvsroot/gentoo-src/rc-scripts/etc/conf.d/net,v 1.11 2004/08/01 22:28:18 agriffis Exp $

##############################################################################
#
#                      READ THIS COMMENT FIRST
#
# PLEASE PICK ONE of the configuration methods listed below.  If you
# don't know which to pick, use the top one, NEW-STYLE IFCONFIG.
# The other two possible options are OLD-STYLE IFACE and
# IPROUTE2-STYLE.
#
# If you have multiple sections (for example IFCONFIG and IPROUTE2)
# the network scripts will attempt to make reasonable assumptions
# about what to use, but there is no guarantee on the results, so
# PLEASE just use one set of configuration variables.
#
# At the bottom there is an ADVANCED CONFIGURATION section with some
# additional configuration possibilities
#
##############################################################################


##############################################################################
#   NEW-STYLE IFCONFIG examples
#   ---------------------------
#   This uses /sbin/ifconfig and /sbin/route to set the network up.
#   It is suitable for most home users.
##############################################################################

# To use DHCP on eth0, simply uncomment the following line:
ifconfig_eth0=( "dhcp" )
ifconfig_eth1=( "dhcp" )

# For passing custom options to dhcpcd use something like the following.  This
# example reduces the timeout for retrieving an address from 60 seconds (the
# default) to 10 seconds.  Note that this might be too short for some servers,
# so the default is encouraged unless you know what you're doing.
dhcpcd_eth0="-R -t 10"
dhcpcd_eth1="-R -t 10"

# For a static configuration, use something like this.  This sets the primary
# eth0 address to 192.168.0.2 and adds two aliases, eth0:1 and eth0:2
#ifconfig_eth0=(
#   "192.168.0.2 broadcast 192.168.0.255 netmask 255.255.255.0"
#   "192.168.0.3 broadcast 192.168.0.255 netmask 255.255.255.0"
#   "192.168.0.4 broadcast 192.168.0.255 netmask 255.255.255.0"
#)

# This is just like setting the gateway config option in the old-style iface
# config, but allows one to add custom routes.  This should not be needed if you
# are obtaining an address via DHCP since the default route should be set
# automatically.
#routes_eth0=(
#   "default gw 192.168.0.1"
#)

# VLAN support - emerge net-misc/vconfig
# Please ensure your VLAN IDs are NOT zero-padded
#vlans_eth0="1 2"
#ifconfig_eth0_1=( "dhcp" )
#ifconfig_eth0_2=( "172.16.2.1 broadcast 172.16.3.255 netmask 255.255.254.0" )


##############################################################################
#   OLD-STYLE IFACE examples (deprecated)
#   -------------------------------------
#   This uses /sbin/ifconfig and /sbin/route to set the network up,
#   but is not as flexible as the IFCONFIG method above or the
#   IPROUTE2 method below.
##############################################################################

# To use DHCP on eth0, simply uncomment the following line:
#iface_eth0="dhcp"

# For passing custom options to dhcpcd use something like the following.  This
# example reduces the timeout for retrieving an address from 60 seconds (the
# default) to 10 seconds.  Note that this might be too short for some servers,
# so the default is encouraged unless you know what you're doing.
#dhcpcd_eth0="-t 10"

# To set a static IP address use a line similar to this
#iface_eth0="192.168.0.2 broadcast 192.168.0.255 netmask 255.255.255.0"

# For setting the default gateway.  You should not need to do this if you use
# DHCP since the default gateway should be set automatically.
#gateway="eth0/192.168.0.1"

# For adding aliases to a interface, specify them space-separated in the
# following string
#alias_eth0="192.168.0.3 192.168.0.4"

# To add a custom netmask/broadcast address to created aliases, specify them in
# the same order as the alias_eth0 string.  If you find yourself doing this, you
# might consider switching to the new-style
#broadcast_eth0="192.168.0.255 192.168.0.255"
#netmask_eth0="255.255.255.0 255.255.255.0"

# VLAN support - emerge net-misc/vconfig
# Please ensure your VLAN IDs are NOT zero-padded
#vlans_eth0="1 2"
#iface_eth0_1="dhcp"
#iface_eth0_2="172.16.2.1 broadcast 172.16.3.255 netmask 255.255.254.0"


##############################################################################
#   IPROUTE2-STYLE CONFIGURATION
#   ----------------------------
#   This makes use of the /sbin/ip command to set routes and ip
#   addresses.  This style is very useful if you are building an
#   advanced linux router or using VRRP For more information on how to
#   use the iproute2 command have a look at the ip(8) man page.
#
#   NOTE: You must emerge sys-apps/iproute2 to use this configuration
##############################################################################

# To use DHCP on eth0, simply uncomment the following line:
#ipaddr_eth0=( "dhcp" )

# For passing custom options to dhcpcd use something like the following.  This
# example reduces the timeout for retrieving an address from 60 seconds (the
# default) to 10 seconds.  Note that this might be too short for some servers,
# so the default is encouraged unless you know what you're doing.
#dhcpcd_eth0="-t 10"

# For a static configuration, use something like this.  This sets the primary
# eth0 address to 192.168.0.2 and adds two aliases, eth0:1 and eth0:2.
# You may also pass advanced ip addr commands via this option.
#ipaddr_eth0=(
#   "192.168.0.2/24 brd 192.168.0.255"
#   "192.168.0.3/24 brd 192.168.0.255"
#   "192.168.0.4/24 brd 192.168.0.255"
#)

# The following will set up the default gateway. You can also pass advanced
# route configs via this option.
#iproute_eth0=(
#   "default via 192.168.0.1"
#)

# VLAN support - emerge net-misc/vconfig
# Please ensure your VLAN IDs are NOT zero-padded
#vlans_eth0="1 2"
#ipaddr_eth0_1=( "dhcp" )
#ipaddr_eth0_2=( "172.16.2.1/23 brd 172.16.3.255" )


##############################################################################
#   ADVANCED CONFIGURATION
#   ----------------------
#   The items in this section can be combined with one of the sections
#   above to create a complete network configuration.  None of the
#   items in this section are necessary to configure for most users.
##############################################################################

# Four functions can be defined which will be called surrounding the
# start/stop operations.  The functions are called with the interface
# name first so that one function can control multiple adapters.
#
# The return values for the preup and predown functions should be 0
# (success) to indicate that configuration or deconfiguration of the
# interface can continue.  If preup returns a non-zero value, then
# interface configuration will be aborted.  If predown returns a
# non-zero value, then the interface will not be allowed to continue
# deconfiguration.

# The return values for the postup and postdown functions are ignored

This happened to me, and I was able to connect by using iwconfig and manually entering my info...I connected once, and then after reboot, it works automatically each time.

Your config can be trimmed down to this
Code:
RC_VERBOSE="yes"
config_eth0=( "dhcp" )
dhcpcd_eth0="-R -t 10"

config_eth1=( "dhcp" )
dhcpcd_eth1="-R -t 10"

@UberLord
OK, I have trimmed my config, but you now it not changed anything.

@rwgeorge
What do you mean as " manually entering my info..."
Could you explain a little more?

Save that to /lib/rcscripts/net.modules.d/iwconfig
Try again :)

YES!! It works with the new iwconfig
Thanks a lot
What I have to do in the future. Have I do the same with iwconfig?
Can I unmask now
Code:

=sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.0_pre3
=sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.0_pre3-r1
=sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.0_pre3-r2

You'll need to use the same iwconfig file from my dev area with both 1.11.13 and 1.12.0_pre3-r2

I emerged the new sys-apps/baselayout-1.12.0_pre5 yesterday, and missed my connection again.
@UberLord
I used the same iwconfig file from your dev area but it not worked correctly.
I am back on sys-apps/baselayout-1.11.13.

I have changed
key_lan="myWEPkey"
to
iwconfig eth1 key myWEPkey
in my /etc/conf.d/net and now the wireless card is working well. It can be only temporary solution, because it makes trouble with my cable setup.
What I have to put here to get it working correctly?

Code:
Found “lan” at 00:04:ED:05:2D:36 (WEP required)
WEP key is not set for “lan” – not connecting
Couldn’t associate with any access points on eth1


Is that still the same error?

Create a file - say called weptest in /root. Put this into it
Code:
#!/bin/bash

source /sbin/functions.sh
source /etc/conf.d/net
source /etc/conf.d/wireless
source /lib/rcscripts/net.modules.d/iwconfig

ESSID="lan"
ESSIDVAR=$( bash_variable "${ESSID}" )
iwconfig_get_wep_key

chmod +x /root/weptest
/root/weptest

And post the results

I have got:
Code:
# /root/weptest
/root/weptest: line 5: /etc/conf.d/wireless: No such file or di                           rectory
off

Because my WEP key is configured in /etc/hotplug/pci/prism54 I have changed weptest to:
Code:
#!/bin/bash

source /sbin/functions.sh
source /etc/conf.d/net
#source /etc/conf.d/wireless
source /etc/hotplug/pci/prism54
source /lib/rcscripts/net.modules.d/iwconfig

ESSID="lan"
ESSIDVAR=$( bash_variable "${ESSID}" )
iwconfig_get_wep_key

and now the result is:
Code:
# /root/weptest
off

My /etc/hotplug/pci/prism54
Code:
#!/bin/bash
#/etc/init.d/net.eth1 start
iwconfig eth1 mode Managed
iwconfig eth1 key MyKeyHere
iwconfig eth1 essid "lan"

We don't use /etc/hotplug/pci/prism54 - who or what document told you to configure there is wrong.
Put the key in /etc/conf.d/net or /etc/conf.d/wireless

I have a prism54 card as well.
I am the principal developer of networking in Gentoo's baselayout.
I wrote the documentation for Gentoo networking.

Given the above, I can tell you that the forum thread to prism54 is old and a poster there called robpatriot even mentions me saying that I have way integrated into Gentoo.

So, when I say that setting anyting in /etc/hotplug/pci/prism54 will not work I mean it.

Try using official Gentoo documentation or from the non-official Gentoo wiki instead of non-official documentation.
