I've successfully set the IP address and SSID, and ifconfig reports that I've attached to the base station, but I can ping not one single host. Is it significant that an inserted card is only recognised if it is in at bootup or if I manually do a `pccardc power 0 1`? > I'm not at all sure what to say about this... > Something did just occur to me. I had ths running under Windows first, and it didn't work with the standard Windows drivers. I had to use Elan's to get it working, and I experienced the exact same problems under Windows that I'm having now - eveything looked like it should be working, but it just *didn't.* The odd thing is, it's can't be a proprietry driver issue because according to Elan, the adapter works fine with the stock Linux PCMCIA drivers. Their Linux support page <http://www.pccard.co.uk/support/plinux.html> may have some useful information that you can make sense of. I have the "P111" model. Is there any more debug I can get to you?
