hi,
I'm new to the wireless connection and i'm using dhcpcd daemon.
Sometimes i use ethernet (eth0), sometimes wireless(eth1). Both with dhcp.
But when i use wireless (or i'm not connected) i have an error with dhcp (timed out, of course).
Becase of this, net.eth0 cannot start and so netmount an samba.

questions:
1) how to stop "error: timed out" from dhcpcd?
2) how to say "netmount you can use also eth1" ?
3) how to say "samba you can use also eth1"?

thanks! :oops:

assuming your eth1 adapter is working (have you confirmed using iwconfig?), you can try to configure the connection manually...

Code:
iwconfig eth1 mode managed key XXXXXXX
iwconfig eth1 essid "MYESSID"
dhcpcd eth1

ping to test.

i'm using wpa_supplicant and my connection now is ok.
the error came (of course) when eth0 and eth1 are not available
