I'm having issues with one last remaining issue with my 100mW NL2011CD
PLUS
EXT2 card (basically the EnGenius/Senao/Intersil one). I can't get it to
"work" for getting online, however it does work fine with "kismet" and
also
"wavemon". I've searched google and found a few other references to
this,
but no solution was posted. Anyone have ideas? This is with RedHat 9
(shrike) from fresh install.
