I'm trying to get wireless to work on my laptop, and I'm
having a small problem.
The laptop has a builtin hardwired Intel NIC,
This gets detected corectly and the e100 module gets loaded for it.
However, I also have a Linksys 802.11b card. Sometimes this card gets
detected and loaded as eth0, before teh hardwired NIC, sometimes not.
I think that the key to the problem is this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/stan# cardctl ident
Socket 0:
product info: "Instant Wireless ", " Network PC CARD", "Version 01.02", ""
manfid: 0x0156, 0x0002
function: 6 (network)
I beleieve thta the fnction 6 confuses the pcmcia autodetection scheme.
Is there soem way I can force this card to be detected as a wlan device?
I've also got an AirLink+ wireless card, which shows this:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/stan# cardctl ident
Socket 0:
no product info available
manfid: 0x0007, 0x0082
And it corectly gets loaded as a wlan device.
