Chris, TCP/IP does not appear to be bound to your Wi-Fi adapter in PROTOCOL.INI (probably as a direct result of the InJoy virtual adapter being bound to your Wi-Fi card, and then having to communicate with GenMAC via the InJoy adapter): On 02/18/07 10:46 pm, Chris Hodgkins thus wrote : Lewis G Rosenthal wrote: <snip> Protocol.ini looks like this: [PROT_MAN] DRIVERNAME = PROTMAN$ [IBMLXCFG] netbeui_nif = netbeui.nif tcpip_nif = tcpip.nif FXWRAP_nif = fxwrap.nif W8086X4224_nif = W8086X4224.nif B57_nif = B57.nif <snip> [tcpip_nif] DriverName = TCPIP$ Bindings = B57_nif,FXWRAP_nif <snip> Here's a snippet from mine: [IBMLXCFG] odi2ndi_nif = odi2ndi.nif tcpip_nif = tcpip.nif B57_nif = B57.NIF W8086X4224_nif = W8086x4224.nif [tcpip_nif] DriverName = TCPIP$ Bindings = B57_nif,W8086X4224_nif Note the wireless adapter binding under [tcpip_nif]. In your case, TCP/IP is getting bound to your wired adapter and to the InJoy virtual ada[pter, but not to your GenMAC Wi-Fi adapter, so XWLAN is telling you the truth: the adapter is disabled. Now, I'm not sure what would happen if you edited PROTOCOL.INI thus: [tcpip_nif] DriverName = TCPIP$ Bindings = B57_nif,FXWRAP_nif,W8086X4224_nif In the above example, your Broadcom adapter is LAN0, InJoy is LAN1, and Wi-Fi is LAN2. However, this may upset InJoy (I have no experience with it whatsoever). -- Lewis ------------------------------------------------------------ Lewis G Rosenthal, CNA, CLP, CLE Rosenthal & Rosenthal, LLC Accountants / Network Consultants New York / Northern Virginia www.2rosenthals.com eComStation Consultants www.ecomstation.com Novell Users Int'l www.novell.com/openenterpriseserver Need a managed Wi-Fi hotspot? www.hautspot.com ------------------------------------------------------------
