#8 Link up, but not connected - spectrum24 cf problem

[Philip Lakin]

Upon inserting the compact flash card, the spectrum
driver is loaded, and sets up eth0 with the correct ip
address, and gateway settings. then the line
eth0: Link status 1

appears in the syslog, but /proc/net/wireless still
does not have any connection details in it, neither can
I ping anything..

I have a wireless monitoring station setup, running
kismet to try and see whats going wrong, but there
doesnt seem to be any packets sent from the card at all.

I have tried the following settings in
/etc/pcmcia/config.opts

module "Spectrum24_cs" opts "network_name=ours"
module "Spectrum24_cf" opts "network_name=ours"

module "Spectrum24_cs" opts "network_name=ours
station_name=unit_4 port_type=1 channel=7"

module "Spectrum24_cf" opts "network_name=ours
station_name=unit_4 port_type=1 channel=7"

The system is running redhat 7.3, compiled with the
redhat pcmcia source 3.1.27, and spectrum 1.03_cf

Thanks again for your help.
