Ok, I have my wusb11 setup, or I think so. This is what I get in iwconfig:

lo no wireless extensions.

sit0 no wireless extensions.

eth0 no wireless extensions.

eth1 ATMEL RFMD503A ESSID:"ujcnet2" Nickname:"ujcnet2"
Mode:Ad-Hoc Channel:10 Cell: 02:00:69:EE:99:54
Bit Rate:11Mb/s
RTS thr=2347 B Fragment thr=2346 B
Encryption key:0000-0000-00 Security mode:restricted Security mode:open
Link Quality:100 Signal level:20 Noise level:0
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0

So it looks like it is running, now how do I get the thing to connect to the internet???
Please help, thanx

First of all, do you get a connection if you disable wep?

Secondly, you have mentioned your wusb11 nic, can we have details on the exact setup, what is connected to what with what? What windows versions?

What Linux distro are you using?

if Red Hat, and its not working, you may want to look at this link to see if you missed anything

Linksys wuxb11 on Redhat (http://freewebhosting.hostdepartment.com/b/brounich/)

Here's a snippet from a webpage HERE (http://www.theducpond.com/freevo/2003_10_12_archive.php#106602395143679653)
that might help if you use slackware, specifically this bit:

iwconfig wlan0 mode Managed rate 11M channel 10 essid Hyrule key <128-bit key here>
route add default gw 192.168.1.1
dhcpcd wlan0

Which apparently needs to be added to your /etc/rc.conf file

Hope this helps.

I decided to re install my hole suse 9.0, cause I have the amtel & prism2 drivers installed and running. I know a lot more now then when I started this all so I think if I follow the howto's for the amtel one I might just get luky. Thanks for all your help, I will let you know if I am stuck again.
