The Marvell vendor driver returns ENETUNREACH from SIOCSIWESSID adn
SIOCSIWAP when it can't find the SSID to associate with, or when the
security parameters of the network don't match what the driver has been
configured for.  Basically, the configuration you have and the scan
result that the driver has don't match up, or the network wasn't found
during the pre-association scan.  Can you provide the output of 'iwlist
ethX scan' for the 3Com network you want to connect to?
