Problem getting ipw2200 to work with wifi-radar

[hadees]

I have been having all kinds of trouble getting wifi-radar to work correctly with my ipw2200 wireless card and I frankly have no clue what is going on.

So first I know my wireless connection works and it can connect to my wifi router because if I set everything up in "/etc/conf.d/net" it all works fine.

The problem with wifi-radar is as following. First wifi-radar won't even be able to tell me about APs around me unless the wireless is brought up first with the "net.eth1" init script. I have no idea why that is but it becomes a problem if all the access points have WEP and I don't have a key yet. Obviously the init script is doing something that needs to be done before wifi-radar will work but i am clueless how to fix it.

The second problem which is more major is that wifi-radar will, for the most part, not connect to my AP. It will however connect to my neighbors unencrypted AP fine but when trying to connect to mine I get "Error, eth1: timed out". Now I at first thought this was because the scan time out was too low but that didn't fix it. What I have been able to figure out though is wifi-radar will be able to connect to what ever AP the init script setup.

So for example when I first was having problem with my wifi I didn't have "/etc/conf.d/net" setup to connect to my AP so my "net.eth1" script would always connect to my neighbors AP with no WEP. Then if I were to run wifi-radar and disconnect form my neighbors AP and try to connect to my own I would get "Error, eth1: timed out". However once I setup eth1 in "/etc/conf.d/net" to connect to my AP with my WEP key and ran wifi-radar then disconnected and tried to connect to my neighbors AP I would get "Error, eth1: timed out". But if I tried to just reconnect to my AP with WEP it was almost instant.

I am really lost with whats going on and I hope I explained this enough because I know it is kind of confusing. If this isn't enough information and I need to provide some more please just let me know what you need to help me with this problem.

That's quite bizarre because it just works fine here with the same hardware.

The only thing you should need to do is to modprobe ipw2200 then launch wifi-radar as root...
I found that doing a:
