[driverloader] Belkin F5D7000

[John Brogan]

I am reasonably new to Linux but, like a great number of other people it would 
appear, I am having trouble with seeting up the Belkin F5D7000 with Suse 9.1.

Having read a number of lists it appeared that Linuxant was the way to go. I 
installed and configured it and now my system appears to recognise the card. 
iwconfig and ifconfig appears to report everything is OK and yet I still 
cannot ping the PC in the next room which is setup in the same way, apart 
from the IP address

the outputs from iwconfig read:
o        no wireless extensions.

sit0      no wireless extensions.

eth0      no wireless extensions.

eth1      no wireless extensions.

eth2      no wireless extensions.

and ifconfig for the wlan0 interface reads:

          inet addr:192.168.0.101  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0

The PC in the other room is the same but has an IP address of 192.168.0.102 
and a mask of 255.255.255.0 as well.

It lloks like I am now 95% there, why can i not get the two to talk. As can be 
seen I am occasionally receiving packets from the wireless network

Any ideas

Thanks in advance,
