Hello,
Not sure if this list is seeing too much action as of late but here
goes. I'd been using this driver on RH9 System 2.4.20-8 kernel with my usb
Intel anypoint wireless 11 Network hardware to great success. Once I built
and installed I don't remember having any trouble with it....ever. I use th=
e
linux box the device is connected to as an internet gateway for an ad-hoc
wlan of laptops (running linux and windows). I recently updated the linux
box to 2.6.12, downloaded and updated driver cvs sources from sourceforge,
made and installed. Wireless interface came back up straight away, but I
cannot reach any of the lappys on the wlan. The linux gateway certainly
receives packets from the laptops but does not send any, lappys on wlan do
not receive any packets from the gateway.
ifconfig before pinging gateway from laptop on wlan:
