hello all,

I am using BL 3.50 as a regular installed linux
on a compaq armada 7710mt, vintage around 1997.

I am using a cisco aironet wireless card on this machine.
I have installed the wireless packages, and was getting
on the internet without problems when i had my router
set to automatic channel selection.

I recently changed that, and set it to a fixed channel,
to avoid interference problems that i was having on
my other computers, and they have not been having any
problems since then.

Now i just tried to get my compaq online for the
first time since setting the router to a fixed channel,
and i find that when i run iwconfig the compaq is
stuck on channel 1 and will not change.

I have tried changing both the channel and the
frequency with iwconfig, and in fact have even
set both in my /etc/rc file, but running #iwconfig
still shows eth0 set to channel 1.

Any help?
