Hi,

This is with FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE.

I'm trying to get my Siemens I-Gate MobilePort PCMCIA to work. This
Card seems to be a Intersil Prism II-Card. It's working perfectly
with the Windows 2000-Driver and the Access-Point.

In pccard.conf, I added an entry for the card with

        config auto "wi" ? 0x10000

which I supposed to be the correct entry for a Prism II-Card.

If I insert it, it is recognized and I can view the stats with
wicontrol and ifconfig.

I set the correct Mode (wicontrol -p1) and my ssid (wicontrol -nssid)
but does not associate. wicontrol shows me, that it's working with 
2MBit/s. After about 2 minutes, the led goes off after flashing.

How can I set the TX-Rate to 11 MBit/s? man wicontrol only shows
a maximum TX-Rate of 6 Mbit/s.
Why is the card not associating? What am I missing?

Regards,
		Florian
