Hello, Prism2 Guru!
I have the following trouble, I'm able to connect Linux-based PC (planned to be a bridge) only in Ad-Hoc mode.
I have Redhat linux with the kernel 2.4.9, external pcmcia-cs-3.1.31,
2002-03-27 HostAP driver release.
Wireless tools release 23.
Compaq WL-200 cards on both sides, firmware version 0.8.0.
Everything is compiled and working, but...
btw I have also one question, where to put the Prism2 card's configuration,
such as mode, essid, channel, bitrate, etc...? now I have to change
everything manually,
using iwconfig.
Can someone step by step tell me how to run this card in AP mode? I need to make a bridge between wired and wireless networks.
/etc/sysconfig/pcmcia
PCMCIA=yes
PCIC=i82365
PCIC_OPTS='irq_mode=1'
CORE_OPTS=
CARDMGR_OPTS=
Thanks in advance,
Dmitri Gofmekler.
