[Wirelessdriver-support] Wireless card driver problem

[Paul S. <cof...@ad...>]

Hello, Thank you very much for your work and offer of your software free 
of charge.  It addresses one of the two major issues I have with OS X.

However, I am having a problem getting it to work.  Any help you can 
provide would be helpful.

Thank You  Paul Stasinos

I am running on a powerbook G3 333 Machine ID 406.
running os x 10.1 (5G64).
192 mb ram built in, 512K backside l2 cache

I am using a skyline wirless card 802.11b
a linksys wireless router.
it works fine in os 9.
it shows  a full signal strength signal in os x but can't connect, it 
lists the broadcast address as 169.254.255.255 an i p address of 
169.254.30.197
with a subnet mask of 255.255.0.0

with ethernet and or os 9 wireless it has a broadcast address of 
192.168.1.255 a ip address of 192.168.1.101 and subnet mask of 
255.255.255.0, which works.

Below are the answers to the questions you asked on your FAQ page.
