What is the better driver to install on RedHat 8 for an Engenius 200mW PCMCIA card on my notebook. This will be used for general online use and kismet(etc.)
Which one is most supported, most stable, easiest to configure? Honestly, I've tried both and had limited success with each, but then again, I'm no WiFi expert and a friend helped me do the HostAP, but it never worked to get online or for kismet. Currently, I've got the wvlan-ng drivers installed and while I can get Kismet to work and detect nodes, I can't get online (either with or without WEP)?! I don't know what I'm doing wrong. There are certainly some 'warnings' that the modules pop about symbols and versions and such. And there are a million config files it seems. *sigh* I'm thinking of just gutting my kernel RPM tree and starting over with a fresh RPM install. I really want this working before DEFCON which is august 1-3rd. Is there a kind soul out there who would be willing to sit down with me and get this working? I could buy you lunch/dinner or mebbe I have some piece of gear I could trade you? But I really do need some help VERY soon. I'm looking for a solution that will grow with my system, not just a quick and dirty hack. I want it so that when a new version of the wvlan-ng or hostap driver comes out, I will know enough about what we did that I could reasonably upgrade. I don't think that's too much. I'm not a novice at all FWTW. I'm in the Seattle area. http://daevid.com 425.985.1752 -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
