Anyone here an ndiswrapper expert? I would most welcome some setup help...

I'm working with a COMPAQ R3320US which sports an internal wifi setup using 
the broadcom BCM4306 chipset. Installing the ndiswrapper and the correct 
windows drivers, the setup process seems to go without a hitch. 

However, the desired WAP uses 128bit wep, stealth (non visible SSID) and mac 
filterig to help keep out the goonies... and me too aparently. I cannot 
establish a wifi connection to the desired WAP to save my file.

However, dumping the ndiswrapper framework and plugging in a  pcmcia senao 
wireless card using the orinoco/hermes drivers works flawlessly...

What to do now? It'd be a plus to get this broadcom/ndis solution working, but 
so far it eludes me. Anyone here care o take a stab at helping me?

Yes, I've placed the broadcom MAC address into the WAP already...

Jerry
