Thanks David. That got me closer. It now loads the driver and the cards green 
light is active. I still have something wrong though because I can't ping any 
other machines here. I am using WEP on the Access Point, perhaps that makes a 
difference somewhere. Here is my log messages now:

I have no idea where it is picking up Station Name "Prism 1" from or why it 
is looking at 255.255.255.255 either. I've looked at network.opts and 
wireless.opts but can't figure out where I went wrong. Can you point to 
things to check?

Thanks much,
Vern
