This same card worked back in the 4.x days but now in 7.0, I can't seem to get it going. I am trying it with no authentication on an open network (it doesn't do WPA, as best I can tell, and that's what I have in place).

I also have an old Lucent card of the same vintage and it't acting the same way. Please cc me on replies as I am not on the list. -- Paul Beard / www.paulbeard.org/
