I was asking because, on my Wavelan card, at least, the power LED turns on only if the card successfully negotiates a connection with the access point. If there's no access point, or if the network name or encryption key is wrong, the LED won't light up (this is for BSS mode only -- it'll light up for ad-hoc mode, but you're not using this). Strange. Do you know if, during your testing, you ever set both the network name and the IP address (statically), or was it one or the other, and not both at once?
