Can't get wireless to work when there are two NIC's present
Hi all,
I have a slight problem with my wireless connection on Yoper v2
I have a Toshiba 7020ct laptop that has a two built-in PCMCIA slots, one of which i use for my wireless Card (netgear wg511)The laptop also has a docking station, which has an on-board intel 10/100 ethernet card. Whenever i have the docking station plugged in with the laptop, i cannot get a connection with my wireless card. yoper recognizes it, but it says wireless connection not found. then when i don't have the docking station, everything works peachy keen. any ideas?

it doesn't give my wireless card an ip address. and since my wired connection isn't hooked, i don't have one for that one either. but it says my wireless card is up and running
