2200BG ad-hoc network

[vanThijs]

I have a centrino notebook (MD96500), with a 2200BG wireless adapter.
First I coulnd enable the wireless adapter, but I created a user and a group and than the card enabled fine.

When I search for wireless networks (using the graphical interface), our ad-hoc network isn't displayed. When I run the "iwlist eth2 scanning" command, it displays the ad-hoc network fine.

Has somebody been able to solve this problem?

I need to know if you got your wireless card working, because I have the same chip and do not know if I could get it to work.

Hi,

If you just want to know if this card is working, so yes by default it's recognized.
