Hi,
I have an SMC2802W card which seems it should work with the p54 driver.
Yet I cannot associate to an ap even if the AP is right next to the card:

Note I use the 2.5.3.0 firmware since it is the one included
in the windows driver that came with my card. I also tried
the others (2.7.0.0 and 2.13.1.0) but also no joy.
with 2.5.3.0 it actually managed to associate, but only
once, only for a couple of seconds and even then it
didn't manage to "authenticate" (despite having no
encryption/security whatsoever in this access point)
Any ideas? If there is any additional info I can provide
or a way to better debug/understand what is happening
that would be great.
Thanks,
Julius
