Hi again Thanks for Your responses...i made som headway.
it turns out my binding didnt work because of some kind of asccii problem i think, i had "Belkin" and that didnt work but "belkin" did. Anyway my card is initializing as it should however i'm having problems getting settings to take. i can set the wep encryption key but i cant set the essid using iwconfig...which ofcourse means it cannot connect to the accesspoint...somewhere there is a slight problem but where to find it? i have noted that apparently wireless.opts doesnt need to be used at all, once can simply put the relevant info in the interfaces file (see /etc/network/if-pre-up.d/wireless-tools) As always pointers are welcome.
