don't know how to proceed.

In the bin directory are some utilities. The instructions for using them are a
little too terse for me.

scan.exe finds the card. Here is the output.

The entry called Infrastructure is troubling me. Shouldn't that be set to
connect to my access point? How do I change that?

Neil
There ARE command line utilities, however by far the simplest solution is to download and install WLANMON (I recommend v 2.12) to let it change these settings for you and start the wireless radio.

Several of us have had issues with v 1.7 of the Genmac driver and have gone back to v 1.6.

I wrote a complete step by step install instruction list on this and the Genmac mailing list for this Intel 2200BG card a little while ago - I send it directly to your e-mail address rather than "clog up" the list here.

Cheers/2
