Where did you get the driver?  I used one that came off the Debian dongle.  
However, that driver is definitely buggy.  Ad-hoc sort of works but I found 
that you have to bring the device down to switch networks.

I did try to compile a newer version of the driver but for some reason it 
doesn't see the Iogear device.  Bleah. Once again, lousy support from TS on 
something.

This does point to a larger question for people though.  Does a plain PC/104 
(not PC/104-Plus) 802.11 card exist?  I need to network 7260's but USB isn't 
really a viable option for it and I need an external antenna.
