Hmmm... do you have /etc/pcmcia/wireless.opts? Did you edit it if so?
Make sure you comment out the lines:
# NOTE : Remove the following four lines to activate the samples below ...
# --------- START SECTION TO REMOVE -----------
#*,*,*,*)
# ;;
# ---------- END SECTION TO REMOVE ------------
And set ESSID and KEY to your specific values in the following section:
# Lucent Wavelan IEEE
# Note : wvlan_cs driver only, and version 1.0.4+ for encryption support
*,*,*,00:60:1D:*|*,*,*,00:02:2D:*)
INFO="Wavelan IEEE"
ESSID="xxxxxx"
MODE="auto"
RATE="auto"
KEY="s:xxxx"
# To set all four keys, use :
# KEY="s:secu1 [1] key s:secu2 [2] key s:secu3 [3] key s:secu4 [4] key [1]"
Then do an /etc/init.d/pcmcia restart
Use iwconfig wvlan0 to manually see settings.
