Problem with Hostap Can Connect to Wlan but can't exchange data

Hello all,

I tried building up an AP (hostapd 0.4.9) with Lucent Technologies pc card
(which is a prism card) on 2.6.17_fc4 machine.
The following error occurs when I started hostapd.

I found similar issue, "Problem with Hostap Can Connect to Wlan but can't
exchange data (
http://lists.shmoo.com/pipermail/hostap/2006-January/012249.html )." But i
still couldn't figure my problem out.

The err message, config file, and dmesg are listed below.

Thanks for your help in advance.

err message:
