Hey
Trying to use yoiur guide to get a d-link 510 online with WPA2 on Gentoo.
18:05.0 Network controller: RaLink RT2561/RT61 rev B 802.11g
Subsystem: D-Link System Inc AirPlus G DWL-G510 Wireless Network Adapter (Rev.C)
Kernel driver in use: rt61pci
Installed the driver above in kernel and also emerged the firmware addon.

Sadly, I can’t use iwpriv to set any of the above settings.

# iwpriv wlan0
wlan0 no private ioctls.

I can only use iwconfig / ifconfig.
That doesn’t seem to be enough.

Thanks for the info, between this and the RT61 config page I am now WPA2 surfing.

Only thing I don’t understand is why my wireless card no longer appears in the dropdown box for network in the upper right corner of ubuntu 7.04
