[Wirelessdriver-support] Netgear MA401

[Robert R. <rre...@ma...>]

Hi,

I recently bought a netgear MA401 wireless card to add a laptop to my 
existing network, however I can not seem to get it to work.  I have a 
D-link dwl-650 that works greats.  Any help is greatly appericated.  
Thanks in advance, I  pasted the trouble shooting report below.

### wd command line tool status

2002-08-19 21:08:02.608 WirelessConfig[290] Iterations: 0
WirelessDriver: Couldn't find a WirelessDriver service in registry - is 
the card loaded?
Usage - WirelessConfig [-showstatus] or WirelessConfig [-showstatus] 
<-netname <network>> [-wepkey <key>] [-keyslot <slot>]
  -netname <name>     Sets the network name - enclose in double quotes
                       if your network contains a space.

  -wepkey <hex key>   Sets your network key, if ommited the network is
                       assumed to not have wep.

  -keyslot <[1-4]>    Sets which keyslot to have your key in. If
                       ommited keyslot 1 is assumed.

  -status             Prints out the network information, includes
                       signal strength.

  -writeprefs         Writes out the options to the preference file 
in                      
~/Library/Preferences/org.noncontinuous.wirelessdriver

With no options set or just the status, WirelessConfig will look for the 
preferences made by the preference pane in 
~/Library/Preferences/org.noncontinuous.WirelessDriver.
