OK, I added it, with netmask 255.255.255.0 as per my LAN settings.  However, it didn't help.  Still no Internet, even after restarting.  I never had to do this using the 2.4.23 kernel, BTW.

I still get errors when using ifdown and ifup as follows:

ifdown ath0
RTNETLINK answers: No such device or address
RTNETLINK answers: No such device or address
ifup ath0
RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument

These don't seem kosher, and a cursory Google search makes me think that madwifi is not talking to my 2.6 kernel correctly.  Does something need to be done with the new (to my computer, anyway) sit0 interface?  Or did I perhaps miss some steps when compiling the driver for 2.6?

Thanks.
