I'm actually struggling with this exact card(the DWL-500 including
PCI->PCMCIA bridge), and I can load the card and a wlan0 interface shows up.
I can ifconfig it and give it an address but iwconfig (and it's iw siblings)
claim that the interface doesn't support wireless extensions. Any
suggestions?
