Prism II - wireless

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I shouldn't complain since I seem to have things working...It's a
Linksys WPC11

00:0a.0 Network controller: Harris Semiconductor Prism 2.5 Wavelan
chipset (rev 01)
        Subsystem: D-Link System Inc DWL-520 Wireless PCI Adapter
        Flags: bus master, medium devsel, latency 64, IRQ 9
        Memory at e9001000 (32-bit, prefetchable) [size=4K]
        Capabilities: [dc] Power Management version 2
 
but to make it work - I have done the following:
1 - edit /etc/modules.conf by adding...
    alias eth0 orinoco
    alias eth0 orinoco_pci

2 - edit /etc/rc.d/rc.local and added
    iwconfig eth0 essid "network_name" key "XXXX-XXXX-XX" &
    (using 64 bit key)

and it works - on my laptop, I only needed to put the stuff from part 2
into /etc/pcmcia/wireless.opts and it worked but for the pci card, it
doesn't work.

Does anyone want to enlighten me of a better way?

Thanks
Craig
