Hi all,

Benjamin Ylvisaker has posted a question with the same subject nearly
a year ago. Unfortunatly, there is no answer to his question - and I
have the problem, that I have the same problem he described...

When starting my laptop with a Cisco Aironet 340 PCMCIA card, no ip
address can be assigned using dhclient until I start the Aironet
Client Utility (/opt/cisco/acu). Its enough to simply start this
program, no further actions are required to do. Than, a "dhclient
eth0" works fine and an IP address is gathered from the DHCP server,
the network works fine than.

Is there a way to get the card working without manually start the acu
and subsequently do a "dhclient eth0" again.

Thank you very much

Thomas
