What version of the card is it? I have a WPC11 v.3 card in my machine and I've had to resort to using the 'hostap' drivers as the drivers (wlan-ng included) don't seem to fully support this card yet. I'm currently using SuSE 8.2 and still have to use the hostap drivers. The drivers can be found here: http://hostap.epitest.fi/ On Thu, 2003-05-29 at 19:11, php@nickselby.com wrote:
Hi, all, Have a vexing problem with this card and Suse 8.0. I downloaded the updated Pcmcia rpms here:
http://www.suse.com/us/support/download/updates/80_i386.html . And I was able to get the information about the card, set it uyp as a network device in Yast2 and now ifconfig -a lists

I went into /etc/pcmcia/wlan-ng.opts and made sure that the card was enabledstation mode was on INfrastructure, infrusture was set with the right SSID.
I went to a hot spot. my card blinks and I check /var/log/messages and see that it's not getting an IP from DHCP.
