/etc/network/interfaces contains the following
iface eth1 inet static
address -some address-
netmask 255.255.255.0
network -some network-
gateway -the gateway
broadcast -broadcast-
wireless-essid SSID
wireless-key key
On inserting the card, airo and airo_cs modules are sucessfully loaded. I get the following from my /proc/drivers/aironet/eth1/Status
Status: PRIV KEY WEP
Mode: 380
Signal Strength: 93
Signal Quality: 15
SSID: -------
AP:
Freq: 0
BitRate: 11mbs
Driver Version: airo.c 0.6 (Ben Reed & Javier Achirica)
Device: 350 Series

Firmware Version: 5.02.19
Radio type: 2
Country: 1
Hardware Version: 22
Software Version: 502

The card seems to be getting intialized properly, however I cannot ping the gateway or any other machine. Has anybody managed to get a similar setup working ?
Yours Sincerely,
