I'm trying to use a dlink dwl 122 usb adapter on my ibook G4.
My distro is a debian testing, using 2.6.10.3 (created by hand, not with the  
"deb" way).

I've downloaded latest version of linux wlan-ng (0.2.2) and I've successfully 
compiled it.
Using kismet I'm able to see my access point, but I'm unable to connect to it.
I've properly configured all linux wlan options but the the card isn't able to 
associate to the access point.

The access point has no wep and no mac-filtering. I've tried the usb adapter 
under windows and I got no problems (in fact it took a little to finish the 
operation, but after the card worked fine).

Here's the output of syslog when I plug the card:

Aug 26 17:58:45 localhost wlan.agent[18044]: WLAN bringing up layer 3+ 
with /sbin/ifup

Searching on google I discovered that, after the last line, I should see 
somthing like "CONNECT".

After lots of minutes the card isn't associated and iwconfig shows :

wlan0     IEEE 802.11-DS  ESSID:"hola"  Nickname:"hola"
          Mode:Auto  Frequency:2.422 GHz  Access Point: 00:00:00:00:00:00
          Bit Rate:2 Mb/s   Tx-Power:18 dBm
          Retry min limit:8   RTS thr:off   Fragment thr:off

          Link Quality:0  Signal level:0  Noise level:0
          Rx invalid nwid:0  Rx invalid crypt:0  Rx invalid frag:0
          Tx excessive retries:0  Invalid misc:0   Missed beacon:0

Any hint?

Cheers

PS: I got the same problem with linux wlan 0.2.1-pre26 in association with 
other kernel (I've always tried with the 2.6 series)
