Re: wi0: wi_cmd failed with 60

Pedro,

I was aware that the man pages said that I had a lower firmware version, but 
US Robotics(USR) did not have any utility in their web site to upgrade the 
BIOS, so I decided to try Dlink PCCARD (DWL-650) firmware update to update my 
2 USR PCCARDs (2410) ... and it worked.

After flashing the new firmware all problems went away.

THANKS FOR THE HELP!
