Please note that this version of driver does not handle roaming correctly.
Since there are so high density APs in the IETF hotel,
you will experience loss of connectivety sooner or later with
"no recent beaconf from xxxx; rescanning" message.

Power off the PC-card and power on again through "pccardc power" command,
or re-insertion of the card might help you :-)
