Dmitri, I have exactly the same as you and my WL200 is working fine. Hostap
is included as I remember with bering or at least is available for it. I
have only ever managed to talk to it once when I hade the other WL200
running in W2K (wash my mouth out) but when I destroyed this motherboard and
installed a new system I cannot get the card to install under W2K again. As
I said it did work once, but I know the card is running, as I have seen
association in the /var/log/syslog file, once only mind you.
Although I have not yet got Bering to bring it up automatically in the boot
sequence (broad hint to anyone reading this, please help I ma getting sick
of doing this manually!)
I manually run after system bootup
ip addr add 192.168.6.254/24 dev wlan0
ip link set dev wlan0 upo
shorewall restart
and hey presto here is what I get
firewall: -root-

Not too hard, I am happy to help you if you want more info
(Note to self, get that Wl200 card running in that other OS!)

Subject: [leaf-user] Compaq WL200 with Bering.
Hi,
Also small question, is there anyone, who had a success with Bering (my
verison is 1.2) and any Prism II wireless card (in my case is a Compaq WL200
PCI version).
I'm trying to use hostap driver in managed mode, but card does not seems to
see nothing in air, assotiation does not happened. Under Windows same card
works well.
If someone had a success with it, please write a small overview of your
case.
Thanks in advance,
Dmitri.
