Hi, Thaks for your seugestions and replys. my Lucent Card now has
configured correctly, .. only a logic problem, my IBM T21 has a Intel
(fxp0) Ethernet card, then I assign other addres eg: 10.0.0.1 to this,
and 192.168.1.x to wi0 (lucent), the problem was resolved, and The card
work excellent.
Thanks and Regards.
