Hi; I just bought an older Vaio PCG-FXA47 laptop. It does not have wireless. My main box does and it uses a Ralink PCI card. I have a two PCMCIA cards and a USB adapter for the Vaio. Only one of the PCMCIA cards will connect. The other one and the USB give me the dreaded "secets required by wireless network", message. I did a "lsmod | grep rt" on each. Here is a breakdown: ------------------------------------------------------------- working: PCI from main box rt61pci 20736 0 rt2x00pci 9728 1 rt61pci rt2x00lib 33280 2 rt61pci,rt2x00pci rfkill 11288 2 rt2x00lib mac80211 181480 2 rt2x00pci,rt2x00lib cfg80211 24968 2 rt2x00lib,mac80211 crc_itu_t 5760 2 rt61pci,firewire_core eeprom_93cx6 5888 1 rt61pci ------------------------------------------------------------- working: laptop PCMCIA Linksys WPC11 rev 4 rtl8180 29696 0 mac80211 181480 1 rtl8180 eeprom_93cx6 5888 1 rtl8180 cfg80211 24968 2 rtl8180,mac80211 ------------------------------------------------------------- Broken: laptop/Working:main box WITH PCI (2 connections) USB: "WiBEE Wlan 80211g USB adapter" rtl8187 39808 0 rtl8180 29696 0 mac80211 181480 2 rtl8187,rtl8180 eeprom_93cx6 5888 2 rtl8187,rtl8180 cfg80211 24968 3 rtl8187,rtl8180,mac80211 ------------------------------------------------------------- broken:laptop PCMCIA: "MSI CB54G2" CT-CB54G2 rtl8180 29696 0 mac80211 181480 1 rtl8180 eeprom_93cx6 5888 1 rtl8180 cfg80211 24968 2 rtl8180,mac80211 ------------------------------------------------------------- If I plug the USB into the main box it connects, then I have two connections to the same router. I cannot test the PCMCIA cards without an adapter. So there is some strange stuff with the RaLink drivers.
