El dmesg me da esto:

ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, git-1.0.8
ipw2200: Copyright(c) 2003-2005 Intel Corporation
ipw2200: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection
ipw2200: Radio Frequency Kill Switch is On:
Kill switch must be turned off for wireless networking to work.

iwconfig me da:

lo        no wireless extensions.

eth0      no wireless extensions.

eth2      no wireless extensions.

sit0      no wireless extensions.

el ifup en eth0 va perfecto
en eth1 (que se supone que es la wireless) da:
Ignoring unknown interface eth1=eth1.

No puedo ni navegar....
No entiendo a qué se refiere esto:
  Kill switch must be turned off for wireless networking to work.

¿Os a pasado?
