I can't tell what was used as the source of documentation for this driver, but if it was the Linux drivers, that may be an issue. My Cisco rep said the Aironet people don't want anything to do with the current Linux drivers and don't recommend them at all. They are supposidly going to release a new Linux driver around the first of the year. -- Brooks -- Any statement of the form "X is the one, true Y" is FALSE.
