: HELP: Debian hostap USB prism2
Hi,
I am trying to get a USB Linksys, Inc. WUSB12v1.1 802.11b which uses
the Prism2 chipset to work on a debian system 2.4.27-2-386 using the
hostap driver.
Running lsusb I get
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 0000:0000
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 066b:2213 Linksys, Inc. WUSB12v1.1 802.11b
Adapter
So I figure the hardware is at least being seen
ls /lib/modules/2.4.27-2-386/net
hostap_crypt_ccmp.o
hostap_crypt_tkip.o
hostap_crypt_wep.o
hostap.o
hostap_pci.o
hostap_plx.o
This is my current lsmod, doing a modprobe hostap
Adds hostap to the top of the list

This is the part where I loose the plot, how do I associate the hostap
with the hardware so that it is visable in an ifconfig -a so I can
add an IP address and all the other good stuff.
This is my current ifconfig, I have an Ethernet card wired connecting
and a cisco pcmcia card 802.11b which both worked fine straight from
the install.
Been banging my head against this for a couple of weeks and I'm not
getting anywhere.
Appreciate any hints, ideas, solutions or good places to look or other
fun commands I can mess with.
Thanks for your time.
