Hello,
I've been trying to get my atmel-based Compaq HNW-200
USB Wireless Adapter to work on RH9 and now FC1
forever!

It seems the driver was installed properly (I
installed the 2002-12-09 snapshot of atmelwlandriver)
as this is what dmesg gives:

prism2_init: prism2_usb.o: 0.2.1-pre14 Loaded
prism2_init: dev_info is: prism2_usb
usb.c: registered new driver prism2_usb

I think one of the problems now is that I installed
prism2 (installed kernel-wlan-ng-0.2.1-pre14.i686.rpm,
kernel-wlan-ng-modules-fc1.1.2115-0.2.1-pre14.i686.rpm,
kernel-wlan-ng-usb-0.2.1-pre14.i686.rpm)? But my card
wasn't working before anyways.

I run iwconfig with the proper parameters, at least I
should hope.   One funny thing is that when I pass the
key, which is a 26-digit ASCII string, with the s:
prefix the actual key prints out differently when I
re-run iwconfig so I've just been passing in the ASCII
string without the s: prefix.

I'm also confused on what exactly I do after this? I'm
supposed to run ifconfig and assign an IP? Buy what
about DHCP?
