I have a PCMCIA wireless card, a Linksys WPC11 v3 card.


As far as I know... this version does not work. Linksys 'updated' the
chipset from version 2.6 to 3 by a Broadcom chipset for which there is no
Linux driver...

Not sure if this is still true with 2.4.22 though... but it was with
2.4.21...


I have this version 3 and it works.  The chipset was changed in version
4 after Cisco bought Linksys.

Are you bringing your interface up as eth0 or wlan0? I get the same
error message but mine works fine. I'll try and post my config files
later...I'm on my windoze machine right now.



My solution was a bit more dirty... I bought a Linksys access point instead ;)
That comes with a nice web interface through a ethernet, so no problems at all... (Still interested in the config file , btw)
