I noticed you have the mode set to Master, is this intentional?
I've found my Prism54 (which is an older model, but the same firmware) requires me to ifconfig up before I can set iwconfig parameters correctly.
The only changes I can see to the prism driver in 2.6.16 are:
--- a/drivers/net/wireless/prism54/isl_ioctl.c +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/prism54/isl_ioctl.c @@ -748,7 +748,7 @@ prism54_get_essid(struct net_device *nde if (essid->length) { dwrq->flags = 1; /* set ESSID to ON for Wireless Extensions */ /* if it is to big, trunk it */ - dwrq->length = min(IW_ESSID_MAX_SIZE, essid->length + 1); + dwrq->length = min((u8)IW_ESSID_MAX_SIZE, essid->length); } else { dwrq->flags = 0; dwrq->length = 0; --- a/drivers/net/wireless/prism54/islpci_eth.c +++ b/drivers/net/wireless/prism54/islpci_eth.c @@ -177,7 +177,7 @@ islpci_eth_transmit(struct sk_buff *skb, #endif newskb->dev = skb->dev; - dev_kfree_skb(skb); + dev_kfree_skb_irq(skb); skb = newskb; } } Both very minor changes. What was the last kernel that worked? Have you tried with acpi=off? Is this a PCI or PCMCIA card?
