Hello,

I'm having problem getting a Netgear MA401 to work.  I
have the following setup:

Linux version 2.4.23

PCMCIA Drivers version 3.2.4

Wireless tools v26

Latest released Host AP tools

Message printed to screen during cardctl insert:

cardmgr[167]: executing: 'insmod /lib/modulhostap_cs:
index 0x01: Vcc 5.0es/2.4.
18/pcmcia, irq 7/hostap_cs.o'
, io 0x0a00-0x0a3f

wlan0: PRI: id=0x15 v0.3.0
wlan0: STA: id=0x1f v0.8.3
wlan0: MAC port 0 enabling failed

Here is the dmesg dump of the problem:

Dump of cardctl ident and cardctl info

cardctl ident:

Socket 0:
  product info: "NETGEAR MA401 Wireless PC", "Card",
"Version 01.00", ""
  manfid: 0x0156, 0x0002
  function: 6 (network)

cardctl info:

PRODID_2="Card"
PRODID_3="Version 01.00"
PRODID_4=""

Anytime I perform an operation with iwconfig, I get
the following error printed in dmesg:

wlan0: hfa384x_get_rid: CMDCODE_ACCESS failed
(res=-110, rid=fc83, len=2)
wlan0: hfa384x_cmd_issue: cmd reg was busy for 5000

wlan0: hfa384x_cmd: interrupted; err=-110
wlan0: hfa384x_get_rid: CMDCODE_ACCESS failed
(res=-110, rid=fc82, len=2)

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
