I have a DWL-650 and have had one heck of a time getting it to work in Linux now that I'm here in Austin. I'm using kernel 2.4.19, pcmcia-cs 3.20 (I think), linux-wlan-ng 0.1.14 and 0.1.15pre5. None of them will associate with my access point since I had to move it to channel 8 since 6 and 7 are used somewhere in this vicinity already. WinXP picked it up just fine, I just had to enter the WEP preshared key.
Also, the sparse docs for wlan-ng don't make it clear if I can specify different settings and decide based on AP's MACS rather than the card's MAC. If I could do this I could wander from campus to home to work without changing a thing.
