hi, Sir

I just bought a access point, the PRISM2 11Mbps design wireless card(pcmcia), and a PCI adapter!
The vendor is gemtek!!
My Linux version is RedHat 6.1, kernel version is 2.2.12-20.
I tried to compile pcmcia-cs-3.1.19.tar.gz ,linux-wlan-ng-0.1.6.tar.gz and succeeded to install.

I listed the status after I gave those commands!

Would you help me?

Thanks a lot!!

ps: I could ping the eth0 and wlan0, they gave the echo message!!
    But I couldn't ping my gateway!!

1. use "ifconfig" command

eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:00:E8:9A:22:A6
          inet addr:203.64.100.209 Bcast:203.64.100.255 Mask:255.255.255.0
          UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1
          RX packets:97668 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:62 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:11 txqueuelen:100
          Interrupt:10 Base address:0x7c00

lo Link encap:Local Loopback
          inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0
          UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:3924 Metric:1

          TX packets:118 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:0

wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:90:4B:00:4A:61
          inet addr:203.64.100.210 Bcast:203.64.100.255 Mask:255.255.255.0

          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:100
          Interrupt:5 Base address:0x100

2. use "netstat -r" command

Kernel IP routing table
Destination Gateway Genmask Flags MSS Window irtt Iface
203.64.100.209 * 255.255.255.255 UH 0 0 0 eth0
203.64.100.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 wlan0
203.64.100.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 wlan0
203.64.100.0 * 255.255.255.0 U 0 0 0 eth0
127.0.0.0 * 255.0.0.0 U 0 0 0 lo

default 203.64.100.254 0.0.0.0 UG 0 0 0 wlan0

3. use "ping 203.64.100.254" command (that's my gateway)
PING 203.64.100.254 (203.64.100.254) from 203.64.100.210 : 56(84) bytes of data.

/* After I removed (ifconfig wlan0 down) the interface wlan0, I could use my eth0 to ping my gateway */
/* I don't know why??? */

4. use "iwconfig" command
lo no wireless extensions.

eth0 no wireless extensions.

wlan0 no wireless extensions.
