Re: [Gumstix-users] Got my cfstix pack and my Netgear MA701 card in.

Well I figured it out.  Here is how you do it:
1. In /etc/network/interfaces
   comment out the bnep interface
   Add 'auto wlan0' above the wlan0 line.

2. In /etc/pcmcia/wireless.opts go to the end of the file.  Change the
default group to look like the following:

case "$ADDRESS" in

*,*,*,*)
    INFO="My Wireless LAN"
    ESSID="My_ESSID"
    MODE="managed"
    RATE="auto"
    KEY="Put key in here if you use one. empty if not."
    ;;

esac

Works like a charm!

He who says it cannot be done is interrupting the one doing it.
