DriverLoader is a revolutionary
compatibility-wrapper allowing standard Windows NDIS (Network Driver
Interface Specification) drivers shipped by hardware vendors to be used
as-is on Linux x86 systems. DriverLoader works with almost all CardBus
(32-bit PCMCIA/PC Card) and PCI Wireless LAN devices.

If you use DHCP to obtain IP information for your wireless interface,
please add the following lines in your '/etc/sysconfig/network/ifcfg-wlan0'
file :
---
DHCLIENT_MODIFY_RESOLV_CONF='yes'
DHCLIENT_SET_DEFAULT_ROUTE='yes'
---
Then, reactivate your wireless interface with the following commands in a
root shell :
---
ifdown wlan0
ifup wlan0
---
If you require more assistance, please send us the output of the following
commands entered in a root shell while you are close to the access point
you try to connect to.
---
ifdown wlan0
ifup wlan0
ifconfig -a
iwconfig
ip route
ip addr
cat /etc/resolv.conf
ping www.linuxant.com -I wlan0 -c 5
ping 63.246.159.50 -I wlan0 -c 5

After you have entered the previous commands, please also send us the
output of 'dumpdiag'. Type the following in a root shell:

Just send us the generated file located in /tmp ('driverloaderdiag.txt').
