I am trying (still) to get a Belkin F5D6020 wireless adapter to work under Linux. PCMCIA recognizes the card when I plug it in. Using the "prism2_cs" driver, 'ifconfig -a' shows a wlan0 device, with no HWaddr or IP address. Running "ifup wlan0" reports the error 'SIOCSIFFLAGS: No such device'. Am I using the wrong driver? Missing an option? Something else entirely?
What I've tried: (1) Using the "orinoco_cs" driver. No network devices ever appear for 'ifconfig -a'. (2) 'ip link set wlan0 up' returns the same error message as 'ifup wlan0'. (3) Added 'alias wlan0 prism2_cs' to /etc/modules.config. It had no discernible effect. (4) Calls to iwconfig fail, saying there is no device wlan0. (5) Google for "SCIOCSIFFLAGS prosm2_cs" and "SCIOCSIFFLAGS belkin" turned up no useful information. (6) 'lsmod' reports that prism2_cs is loaded.
