driver question

[Prasad Venkata Boddupalli]

Hi,

In our experiments, we have setup a WLAN using a single Lucent AP-1000.
The AP is configured with 2 lucent Silver pcmcia cards with the same
network name. Our mobile stations run on Linux kernel 2.4 and use the
'wvlan_cs' driver (version 1.0.6). In the above setting, we would like to
issue commands (to the wireless interface of the mobile station) via the
device driver to selectively bind to one of the two wireless interfaces on
the AP. We tried issuing the command

     iwconfig eth1 ap <mac address of one of the wireless interfaces>

It should have forced the mobile station pcmcia card to bind to the
specified AP interface. However, we realized that the operation was not
implemented. So, we were just wondering if the above limitation is in
the device driver or is it much more fundamental. If it's the limitation
of the driver, we would like to implement it and hence would require
access to the firmware API's and the card details. Are these details
accessible to everyone and if so, where can we get them ? A search on the
orinoco web site hasn't yielded the required documents.

thanks,
Prasad Boddupalli.
