Hostap box don't ping to another box with w98, and other problem

[Vic Berdin]

Hello Jesus,

Wireless card specifics are usually configured in
/etc/pcmcia/wireless.opts. You may set your WLAN
network settings in /etc/network, but IMHO, it's best
to do it in /etc/pcmcia/network.opts to handle network
settings during card hot swapping more effectively.
Just try using the native card manager opts files and
see what happens.

HTH -Vic

adaptor) with firm

9


And another with=3A

Windows 98
Usr 2415 (which is a pc-card inside a plx adaptor)
card with firm 
1=2E4=2E=
9

I ping from w98 to linux=2C ok
I ping from linux to w98=2C no pings are replied

When i type iwconfig=2C i see the message Driver for
