Hi - I've used DriverLoader before with no problems. This time, however, I've run into difficulty getting a connection. The driverloader module installed properly, but an attempt to use the card fails when it can't obtain an IP address. The cause for this failure becomes evident when I run "iwlist eth1 scan," which returns the message: eth1 Failed to read scan data : No data available I've tried finding ap in two locations where there are quite strong signals; my Windows partition finds the access points with no trouble using the same card. My card is a MA521 from NetGear, which (I believe) uses the RTL8180L chipset. Thanks for any help you can offer, ~Mark __________________________________ Yahoo!
