-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello there! I've installed Driverloader to help me run a DWL520 wireless card on a pc running Fedora Core 6. The card works fine - for brief periods. After a seemingly random amount of time (usually 1 to 5 minutes) the network becomes unreachable. Other weirdnesses: Even when working, KWifiManager reports ssid: UNKNOWN Installed first with driverloader provided drivers. Tried the WinXP drivers from D-Link install cd-rom; then downloaded the latest WinXP drivers from the D-Link site. All showed the same issue. Some other maybe useful points: The router is running WEP security. The PC in question connects just fine when running on lan cable Kernel is the linuxant enlarged stack version. Driverloader looks extremely useful. We have about 10 pc's I'd love to get on wireless if I could get it to work reliably. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFtcqJpMx7PX4O/LURAo43AJ9VEI9mYISe6+qXYBu3Xwka/qHMOwCgw4yr VfXCGxeIn7Wyc7HNecHkWms= =fwxG -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
