The access point has an entry in the association table for my PC Memory Card International Association (PCMCIA) card, but I cannot get a dynamic IP address. What is the problem?
A. The most common cause of this behavior is the inability of the PC to communicate with the card through the PCMCIA socket. Check the driver for your PC card socket. If the driver is a CardBus driver, check whether it is 32-bit only. The Cisco Aironet card requires 16-bit access. If the driver for the socket only works in 32-bit mode, you must contact the manufacturer of the computer for a 16-bit version. If the manufacturer cannot provide you with one, there are third-party PCMCIA card and socket service manufacturers who sell products that support 16-bit access. The CB20A and CB21AG Cards are CardBus compliant, and only work with hardware sockets and drivers that supply 32-bit access. The PI21AG is a PCI card, so other problems can contribute.
