It works on iPAQ too but after a short delay it dies of i.e i started pinging 
and after a couple of pings it stoped. 
Then i took the newer version i.e .11b of the driver , compiled it for 2.4.7 . 
But this one does not even let me ping .... as soon as i ping i get the 
following message :

********************
NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out
eth0: Tx timeout! Resetting card. ALLOCFID=000b, TXCOMPLFID=023c, EVSTAT=800b
NETDEV WATCHDOG: eth0: transmit timed out

eth0: Error -110 writing packet header to BAP
eth0: Error -110 writing Tx descriptor to BAP
***********
version .08 at at least does a couple of pings before crashing !

is there some way of making the DWL-650 cards work with orinoco driver or is
 it totally unreliable ?
