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: Dec 2 21:32:11 sttl cardmgr[3006]: socket 0: Intersil PRISM2 11 Mbps Wireless Adapter Dec 2 21:32:11 sttl cardmgr[3006]: executing: 'modprobe hermes' Dec 2 21:32:11 sttl kernel: hermes.c: 12 Dec 2000 David Gibson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Dec 2 21:32:11 sttl cardmgr[3006]: executing: 'modprobe orinoco_cs' Dec 2 21:32:11 sttl kernel: dldwd: David's Less Dodgy WaveLAN/IEEE Driver Dec 2 21:32:11 sttl kernel: eth1: Firmware ID 1F vendor 0x0 (UNKNOWN) version 0.08 Dec 2 21:32:11 sttl kernel: eth1: MAC address 00:03:2F:02:47:8B Dec 2 21:32:11 sttl kernel: eth1: Station name "Prism I" Dec 2 21:32:11 sttl kernel: eth1: ready Dec 2 21:32:11 sttl kernel: eth1: index 0x01: Vcc 5.0, irq 3, io 0x0100-0x013f Dec 2 21:32:11 sttl cardmgr[3006]: executing: './network start eth1' Dec 2 21:32:11 sttl dhclient: Internet Software Consortium DHCP Client V3.0b2pl9 Dec 2 21:32:11 sttl dhclient: Copyright 1995-2000 Internet Software Consortium.

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?
