Hi!
I'am trying to install Gento to asus eee 1101ha, and having some problems with networking. If i turn on my wifi card in windows, it becomes visible and work's fine in gentoo - but i can't turn it off. Also, if it turned off in windows - it's imposible to start up wifi in gentoo.

To make it working, i added
Wireless Lan --->
[*] Wireless LAN (IEEE 802.11)
<M> Atheros 802.11n wireless cards support
I have:

lspci | grep Network
01:00.0 Network controller: Atreros Communication Inc. AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express) (rev 01)

On "gmesg | tail" got:

*********
ADDRCONF(NETDEV_UP): wlan0: link is not ready

The "iwconfig":
wlan0 IEEE 802.11bgn ESSID:""
Mode:Managed Frequency:2.412 GHz Access Point: Not-Associated
Tw-Power=20 dbm
Retry min limit:7 RTS thr:off Fragment thr:off
Encryption key:off
Power Management:off
Link Quality=0 Signal level=0 Noise level:0
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0

How can i turn it on?

Sorry for my bad english ;)

P.S. using gentoo-2.6.30-r8.
P.P.S. the same with bluetooth :(
