So, I'm trying out the newly-committed raylink driver on a pair of Aviator 2.4
(plain, not Pro) cards.  The cards are both firmware rev 4.  Has anyone gotten
these working in a FreeBSD-to-FreeBSD configuration?  I have two systems,
running a recent (post-commit) -current.  The cards are properly recognized by
pccardd and the raycontrol program sees the settings and makes reasonable
modifications.  It actually looks like the two cards just plain aren't seeing
each other.  The 'BSS Id' values are never the same on the two systems, even
those I've set the SSID to the same thing repeatedly.  As nearly as I can tell
from reading a little about 802.11, the BSS Id is supposed to be the same.
Also, both cards always have a 0x01 for 'Current INITED'.

Oh, and I've also tried varying the location - one of the systems is sitting
on a monitor arm (it's my old laptop) about 6 feet above floor level.  The
other has been sitting almost directly underneath it, but I've varied the
location from nearby to 20 ft away with no luck.

The only other major data point I can think of is that I've never tried using
these on a Win9x system, so if the Win drivers make some persistent config
change I've missed out on that.

Help?
