Is this a problem of brand mixing on 802.11b products or is there something wrong with the DWL-650 card? I am unable to return to the D-Link router for testing as I no longer have it with me.
Do you use the in-kernel orinoco driver? I've had similar problems with that one. The more recent orinoco-0.13beta1 from http://ozlabs.org/people/dgibson/dldwd works for me!
What I'm having trouble with right now is getting this to install.
I've downloaded the 0.13beta1 and the kernel-source-2.4.18 deb package, but I'm still unable to compile the driver
bash-2.05a$ cd orinoco-0.13beta1/
bash-2.05a$ make
