I'm using a Linksys WPC54G v3 (Broadcom chipset) with Airport Utility
5.4.2 under 10.4.11 running on a Pismo. The DSL modem is a 2Wire
1800HG, which works fine as a wireless with a PC, and works fine when
the Pismo is connected to it with an Ethernet cable. The DSL modem is
using WPA encryption.

But when I use the wireless card, the modem doesn't show up on a scan.
I'm not sure what's wrong. I'm used to using other wireless cards on
PC's, and the Airport software is different enough to be confusing to
me.

I also once used a Belkin F5D7010 v3001 card on the same setup with
success, but I was using WEP back then. Now with WPA, I can't stay
connected - the card switches off fairly quickly, whether I type what
I think is the right password or when I deliberately type the wrong
one. With this wireless card, I can see the 2Wire modem listed by the
software.
