The Ethernet address for it comes up consistently wrong. It comes up 80:5e:c0:c0:80:nn (nn = random) when it should come out 00:30:ab:mumble. 2. Encryption appears to not work. The reason I thought the card was working before was because I wasn't using encryption in the temporary environment I was using at the time. I can set a key, but wicontrol shows the encryption is always on regardless of whether it is or not, and if it is on, wicontrol -o shows the "can't decrypt WEP frame" number going up. 3. It does not appear to go into IBSS mode with -c 1 alone. wicontrol -p 0 is also required, even though I have seen folks on this list say that makes no sense. The driver that comes on the CD for Linux appears to be a generic one (but I didn't look at it very hard). Anyone familiar with this driver who can give me some debugging pointers would be very appreciated. I really want to get it to work because my Lucent cards block the 2nd USB port on my Vaio (along with the [useless] memory stick slot).
