Cant remember where that comes from. Either way, you've got an ok mix of software, 2.4.18 is ok, the 0.13b release of the orinoco driver is what David suggested I tried. I highly suggest a firmware upgrade. Not for the D-link, but same chipset, and the 1.4.9 worked for me: http://www.netgate.com/support/prism_firmware/ use this to do the upgrade: ftp://ftp.dlink.com/Wireless/DWL650/Firmware/dwl650_firmware_8c2.exe now go find a windows laptop. :) (I accept no responsibility for any bad outcome of the above activities. they Worked For Me(tm). Above all, I HIGHLY recommend reading ALL of the documents found within the 1.4.9.zip file at the netgate URL) Mike. -- Mike Beattie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ZL4TXK, IRLP Node 6184 "In the beginning the Universe was created.
