I've gotten it working with a K6/266 MB and
a K6-2/500 MB:
I edited wlan.conf (adhoc=y) and moved it to
/etc/wlan.conf
and moved rc.wlan to
/etc/rc.d/rc.wlan
The 'make install' didn't place them for me, as advertised. :-|
Ran
#modprobe prism2_pci
#ifconfig wlan0 up
#/etc/rc.d/rc.wlan start
#ifconfig wlan0 192.168.1.1
/* I'm not to sure of the order :-| */
I pinged this host from a Win2kpro host:
c:\> ping -n 99 -l 32760 192.168.1.1
and it indicated an 11 Megabit link with
~65k bytes/second.
I'm wanting to create a community wireless LAN using a water tower
as a passive reflector and hoping for ~5 mile radius of the water
tower. I am also wanting to use the minimum CPU horsepower for the
wireless<>internet gateway. This is why I'm trying to get a wireless
device working in my old 80586x120. ;-)
