Trouble with Compaq WL200

Hi all,

I'm trying to get my RH 7.2 gateway box to work as an AP using a WL200 to a Win2k/WL100 laptop.. I did get the 2 to link up in Ad-Hoc mode, but I couldnt get any traffic between them. One thing that might be a problem.. they both had their firemware flashed to 0.8.0 - would that be a problem?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Matt
