You might want to try -current--it just might fix your problem. Lately I've been doing a trick that annoys my Linux friends--I take their USB wifi stick and stuff it into my thinkpad and use it. With very few exceptions, it just works. I have a == $22 stick from newegg, CNet model CWD-854 which I bought thinking it would work till my thinkpads card would work, and it worked perfectly. its a rum(4) device. But try random devices. it's fun. --STeve Andre'
