After booting, when I click on the Wlan widgit, it says:
No Wlan driver installed.

      
Now, the XWLAN issue is different, as it should detect the appropriate interface. What version of XWLAN are you using? The most recent is 2.14, and there was an issue sometime back with cards not being detected.
    What happens when you go to your \genmac\bin directory and run scan.exe? are you able to get a response from the card listing available networks?
    

Thanks again. I feel like I am making progress.

  
You're welcome. :-)  Glad we're moving forward, and hope we continue in that direction.
I am using XWLAN 2.14 -- should I try a different version?

  
You might want to jog back to 2.13 or 2.12, but no earlier than that, I wouldn't suppose.
Here is the result of scan:

This looks good. The card is definitely alive and functioning, so this is indeed an issue with XWLAN finding it.
The XWLAN widget has an X in it, and when I click on it, it says: No WLAN
driver installed.

Any suggestions will be very much appreciated.

  
Hmmm... A quick search through the archives on this list comes up with:

http://mail.2rosenthals.com:8100/Lists/os2-wireless_users/Message/5906.html?Language=

wherein Christian responded to a similar issue concerning the bindings from protocol.ini not getting written to os2.ini for some reason. You might want to try to uninstall and then reinstall the same version of XWLAN (2.14), now that you've got a working GenMAC in place, and see what XWLAN does.

There is also an XWLAN list on GMane: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.org.netlabs.wlan.general/ . Christian might be able to offer more substantive help, but feel free to keep this thread going. I'm curious to see if a reinstall does indeed address the problem.
