I have a WaveLAN ISA adaptor.

I am trying to run it in a machine equiped with an AMD K6-2 350
processor running at 66mhz bus speed.
I am getting the following error while ifconfiging the card.

ifconfig wl0 192.168.10.1
ifconfig: ioctl (SIOCAIFADDR): File exists

I belive the issure is some kind of timeing problem because the dos
drivers and ptpdiag work and the card works with freebsd in other
machines.

I have tried about everything I can think of I have set
machdep.wl_xmit_delay:   up and down
as well as played with clock speeds of the CPU and motherboard as well
as bios wait states, pnp settings ect. and differant wavelan cards.

I even reset the factory setting off 0x300 irq 10 to other ones just  to

be sure.. I have tried the
drivers in 3.0 3.1 and 4.0 current they all do the same thing..

thease are the current dmesg settings

wl0 at 0x390-0x39f irq 5 on isa
wl0: address 08:00:6a:2b:e3:30, NWID 0x5262, Freq 2422 MHz

and the wlconfig info...

If anyone can help in any way or point me to someone who might
I would greatly apreciate it.

Thanks in advance
