Modify the /etc/wlan.conf and/or /etc/pcmcia/wlan-ng.opt file(s)
to configure your wireless card for YOUR specific WAP.  The default
blank ones from 0.1.15 are provided.  The documentation that comes with
the source code is provided in the kernel-wlan-ng base RPM.  Don't forget 
to check out the mailing list for additional help.  And for crying out 
loud, secure your Wireless setup...don't be an easy target for crackers!

Verify that the correct configuration line was placed in the 
/etc/modules.conf file.  This should have been done automatically when the
RPM was installed, but check it to make sure!  For example, for PCMCIA 
cards, the line should be 'alias wlan0 prism2_cs'.

Maybe this will help.... maybe it won't.
