Hi,
I disabled pcmcia from the boot options and finally
with the rc.d script started pcmcia card.
Now when I run iwconfig I do see the essid of the
network I am trying to connect to . I even see the two
lights blinking (of Status and Activity) on the Xircom
Wireless PCMCIA card but somehow I cannot connect to
the network or internet.
What can be the problem?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Rebel
