I can get my ATT PCMCIA card with lwlan to blink both lights on and off , but doesn't seem to be actually sending a signal since the router doesn't see anything. The card initiallizes on bootup, but nothing else seems to work.

With the KDE wireless manager in MEPIS It works immediately after boot up.

doobit,
your driver should be wavelan_cs. Run "lsmod" to see if it is loaded. If not, run "sudo modprobe wavelan_cs", then use iwconfig to set up your wireless settings.

Hi!

A taiwanese piece of shite called a Cameo WLB 1201 with a Realtek RTL8180 chipset is running very well under Ndiswrapper, both under DSL 1.3 and 0.9.1. , using the latest XP Driver from the Realtek site.

Interestingly enough, the Ndiswrapper tool from dsl did not work. Under terminal no problems.

Cheers.

Thank you! Once I've loaded the driver, how do I save everything so it loads automatically the next time?
