I installed archlinux on my centrino notebook which contains a build in ipw2100 wireless network adapter. I followed the instruction from http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Wireless_Setup and got the following result:
bash-3.2# ifconfig -a

but when I tried to scan my linksys wrt54g router with command iwlist but failled to scan:
bash-3.2# iwlist eth1 scan
eth1 No scan results
I also installed the archassistant tool but can't scan either.
The ipw2100 driver seemed installed well:
bash-3.2# dmesg | grep ipw2100
ipw2100: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2100 Network Driver, git-1.2.2
ipw2100: Copyright(c) 2003-2006 Intel Corporation
ipw2100: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 Network Connection
firmware: requesting ipw2100-1.3.fw
My wireless network is not hiddened ssid.
Can anyone help me to bring my wifi work?
Regards.

It's solved.
My notebook has a function that can be easily turn on/off the wifi by press Fn and F2.
Sorry for my stupid problem
