Works great ! Many thanks !
BTW I used now the newer driver 3.120.27 (R102320)

Needed to convert the .inf file from unicode, since I 
got the international driver, where this file is in unicode.
Assume you use the us driver.

Implementation of wlan is a bit different in US and Europe.
So I choosed the German driver suitable for my countries
frequencies and standards.

These steps work, thank you ;-)

Now I only have to fiddle around how to do both:

Use DHCP and custom WLAN settings.

In the past I didnt get it managed to use DHCP and
custom settings for SSID, wep/wpa password ...

Either a long ifconfig line or using DHCP statement
but then open lan.

Some solution for this ?
