#247: Wireless network not connecting in Live mode
----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
 Reporter:  BSDed                 |       Owner:        
     Type:  defect                |      Status:  new   
 Priority:  major                 |   Milestone:  8.0   
Component:  System Configuration  |     Version:  8.0-RC
 Keywords:  wlan wifi live mode   |  
----------------------------------+-----------------------------------------
 When I boot into live mode from the 8.0RC dvd, it seems not to be able to
 set the WLAN network-connection active.

 More details:
 When I go to systemsettings -> system network configuration, it tells me
 that it found a new device and if I want to activate it. I click on
 activate.
 It shows my WLAN adapter (Intel Pro/Wireless 3945 ABG) and I can configure
 it, scan for WLAN (I have to click rescan otherwise it doesn't find any
 network), and can configure network-access.
 But it seems the device does not set itself active and thereore does not
 connect to a WLAN. The status is always "no carrier". Right-click on the
 device and choosing "Enable Device" or "Restart network" don't do
 anything.
