I'm not very familiar with Orinoco, but probably it is a firmware-related problem. Try changing firmware on the card or the AP. Samuel R.

I set the right IP/Netmask/default gateway/ESSID; the wireless card detects the AP's MAC and some signal level, but I can't ping to any host, except netcs0, eth0 and local interfaces. In the AP, the MAC of this wireless card was correctly associated to its IP and the access was granted. > > I thought the card could be damaged, but it works fine with the D-Link, even in a win98 laptop. > > The most strange is that an "oficial" Lucent Orinoco Silver works in that WISP machine, with the same configurations, without any problem, accessing the Internet through the AP-1000. > > # cat /etc/default/pcmcia > PCMCIA=yes > PCIC=i82365 > PCIC_OPTS="irq_mode=0" > CORE_OPTS= > CARDMGR_OPTS= > > Any suggestion is welcome > > Gratefully, > > Samuel > > -- Best Regards, Vladimir Ivashchenko ThunderWorx - www.thunderworx.com Senior Systems Designer/Engineer ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by BEA Weblogic Workshop FREE Java Enterprise J2EE developer tools!
