Because of you comment on router possibly not being able to deal with a certain number of wireless clients, I get that you seem to have a lot of wireless clients. Is that the case? If you have other clients are they working ok when the XO is on?
<br><br>And the XO? Does it associate to the linksys AP?<br><br>Does your Sansung laptop has linux installed? If so, what happens when you do a scan (iwlist <interface> scanning)?<br><br>I am sorry for that many questions. Just trying to find a thread to pull.

Hi all,<br><br>i have a rather strange problem. While my OLPC (g1g1 model) is turned<br>on another laptop of mine (Samsung Q10, 5 years old) has serious<br>trouble connecting to an access point (Linksys BEFW11S4).<br><br>
I tried turning off the wireless connection of the OLPC<br>(sugar-control-panel -s radio off) but the problem persists until i<br>completely turn off the OLPC (with the power button) and restart the<br>Samsung laptop.<br>
<br>At one point i thought it's the router not being able to handle more<br>than a fixed number of clients. But the problem is that the Samsung<br>laptop doesn't even see any wireless networks. It goes so far that
<br>NetStumbler fails with "orinoco error 5".<br><br>The wireless adapter of the Samsung is a "Orinoco mini-pc card' by<br>Lucent. If more information is need please let me know.<br><br>Any advice is appreciated. Cheers,
