New Prism driver and WPA2

[bbond007]

LOL! Yeah, have fun getting your Amiga wireless baby!! You are running exactly the same thing I am running and after weeks of struggle my A1200 fails to go online wireless. Forget wireless and stick with wired. I need to get a wired Ethernet card for my Amiga and a very long cable, but this is the only choice I have with it. If you managed to get it online, please tell me what you done to get it online because I sure gave up myself.

I think I'll just stick to WEP. Getting that up and running could not have been simpler.

I only let known MAC addresses on my on the wireless anyway.

I think I would notice someone parked outside stealing my internet. I don't know why they would do that anyway when there is a Panara Bread with free wifi not far away...

WEP also couldn't be simpler to crack, nor could MAC address filtering. Even WPA isn't very secure. It just takes longer to crack.

Once they figure our my internet provider is Clear Wimax they probably would not want on anyway.

Can't say how happy i am to have got this working. Will be making a write up on my blog tomorrow on how i got it all working. Hopefully it will aid everyone else who is struggling to get wifi on their migs

Congratulations!

Anyway, I can't wait to read about the process. I guess flashing the card would be the first step.

I don't know how I would ever flash my card. I think my laptop takes a PCI express. I do have OSX powerbook. I wonder of that would work....

I finally was able to borrow an old Dell D810 notebook with a PCMCIA slot but the only problem was that it has Windows7 and the Linksys driver would not work

What a frustrating machine. I turn it on and it first wants to download two years of about 500TB of windows updates. Who puts windows 7 on a machine with such low specs anyway. Oh, and the best part is it had some virus checker popping up(behind the browser... in the background) insisting that every single file I downloaded is infested with a virus.

So I just prepared an 60GB Windows XP HD (under Oracle VirtuaBox) with all of the drivers and files and I'm going to swap the HD in that D810 before I try it again.

That way I can leave that little treasure in its present condition and don't end up getting stuck rebuilding the OS after something goes wrong

I was going to try a linux live CD but with my luck something will be screwy with the CD ROM.

Hiddenevil, thanks for the guide! Hopefully it makes rest goes better. So far this has been a mission

Hey

I finally got access to a working WinXP pc with PCMCIA slot...

I have not upgraded anything yet, but it looks as if I'm already on the most current version?

Should I still flash it? I did try the driver with my iPhone with PDANET but did not get it to work using WEP. Figured it was the firmware...

Thanks

Edit:

I tried to flash it anyway. This is the error I'm getting:
