Well, here's how I set it up.

I modified the countrycode to "fr", built a new kernel, and rebboted.

after that I saw the mac adress of ath0 in dmesg.

# then ifconfig ath0 <ip> <mask> media autoselect nwid <ssid> nwkey
<wepkey> mediaopt hostap chan 11 up
It worked so I set it in /etc/hostname.ath0

As I said before, the only working mode for me is 802.11b, if I force
a higher mode the card doesn't work. Have you tried with 'mode
autoselect' ?

Hope this helps.

I'm afraid something is wrong.

I set up to hostname.ath0 this:
dhcp NONE NONE NONE media autoselect nwid asuka chan 1 up
or
dhcp NONE NONE NONE media autoselect mode autoselect nwid asuka chan 1 up

But it didn't get dhcpoffer. I changed the router mode to MIXED, that means it serves B and G as wel. As I can see you run your Wlan card as an AP? I want to use it as a client to associate with AP, so I omit mediaopt. With Gentoo/madwifi-drivers it's working so the card is good, but I haven't got Linux..and don't want to use ;]

If I set up the card like this:

inet ath0 192.168.1.2 0xffffff00 192.168.1.0 media autoselect mode autoselect nwid asuka chan 1 up

then it seems the card blinks correctly ( as I remember from NetGear WG511T ), but I can't ping the router or the other wlan machines on my network.

What should be the problem. I have no idea..:( I simply want to use it with dhcp. Any suggestions?
