Intel wifi: could not load firmware

[dsjonny]

Haiku cannot use the wireless adapter in an old Fujitsu LifeBook E8020, it not listed as network adapter.

The wireless card is an Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG.

Have you tried running 'install-wifi-firmwares' and then rebooting?

[dsjonny]

I will try it tomorrow.

[dsjonny]

Thank you the help. The script installed the firmwares and the wifi now works. The ticket can be closed.

[luroh]

Great, thanks for checking. There are a couple of patches awaiting review in #10464 that should further improve the situation, e.g. no longer requiring any Internet connection to install the firmware. I hope I can bug you for testing again once those patches have been committed.
