Help Does Sl6000 Can Use Cf Wlan Card?
« on: January 10, 2005, 09:40:51 pm »
Although SL6000 already integrated the WLAN function but my SL6000 cann't access a  AP(made by nortel) and others works well!

So I am trying to using CF WLAN card (model:Senao SL-2511CF 11Mb/s 802.11b WLAN Card)to try to Access the AP  and modify the /etc/pcmcia/wlan-ng.conf  

ADD

card "Senao SL-2511CF 11Mb/s 802.11b WLAN Card"
manfid:0x000b, 0x7100
bind "wvlan_cs"

After reboot seems the CF wlan card already active(but I am not sure because the led of the CF card not flash).

Then I am trying to config the network setting but in the SL6000 the network doesn't has the function that can choose using internal WLAN or using CF WLAN card!


How should I do to let the CF WLAN card can connect to AP or the SL6000 can't use CF WLAN because it already integrated the Wifi !

maybe I should ask How to do the CF wlan card is configured as the only active wireless device (device "wlan0")  !

Because I think I already config the CF WLAN card ready on SL6000 but I don't know how to disable the built-in WIFI in SL6000 then active the CF Wifi card!

Try binding to orinoco_cs. It would add the card as eth0. You can use the standard linux iwconfig and ifconfig commands to configure it then.
