Built-In wireless (802.11b)

[Earl Colby Pottinger]

Hi
I got myself a Dell Latitude C610 laptop a couple of days ago.
I wanted to test my built in network card (wlan) so i could
go surfing on the internet. I followed the wireless how-to for BeOS,
but couldnt make it work. The example in the how-to happened to be
product info: "Dell", TrueMobile 1150 Series PC Card", "Version
01.01", ""
manfid: 0x0156, 0x0002
function: 6 (network)
I have installed BONE7a, and i added the card JUST like in the how to
card { TrueMobile 1150 Series PC Card
manfid 0x0156 0x0002
bind wavelan
}
Then i changed the info in Boneyard, but it crashed on Apply, but i
have restarted my machine, and the right settings are intact. What is
wrong? Do some of you
know anything about this? Can someone please help me?
Regards
Petter

Does the card work under windows? If it does do you have the utility to read
and change the card's settings? While not wireless, I have gotten network
cards that don't work under BeOS on the first try, to work after changing
some of the card's default setups.

Hi

It works under Windows, and I installed a driver for it and a app called
Client Manager.
Do you think the card is prism? How do i set the
SSID with wavelan? I needed that when i configured it for Windows.
