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 at76c503.c: getting firmware failed with -32, or version is 0 at76c503.c: this probably means that the ext. fw was not loaded correctly unregister_netdevice: device eth%d/dab44000 never was registered at76c503.c: at76c503_new_device returned NULL parport0: PC-style at 0x378 [PCSPP,TRISTATE,EPP] lp0: using parport0 (polling). lp0: console ready usb.c: USB disconnect on device 02:01.1-1 address 2 hub.c: new USB device 02:01.1-1, assigned address 3 usbdfu.c: Downloading firmware for USB device 3... at76c503.c: $Id: at76c503.c,v 1.35 2003/07/30 06:31:51 jal2 Exp $ compiled Oct 29 2003 15:50:26 at76c503.c: firmware version 0.90.0 #44 (fcs_len 4) at76c503.c: device's MAC 00:05:5d:d5:9e:4c, regulatory domain <unknown> (id 0) divert: allocating divert_blk for wlan0 at76c503.c: registered wlan0 at76c503.c: using BSSID 02:00:8a:40:27:00 PCI: Found IRQ 11 for device 02:0a.0 hdc: attached ide-cdrom driver. hdc: ATAPI 48X DVD-ROM drive, 512kB Cache, UDMA(33) Uniform CD-ROM driver Revision: 3.12 cdrom: This disc doesn't have any tracks I recognize!

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? __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
