Ok I made:

ifconfig eth2 192.168.1.150

the output from ifconfig eth2 is now:

eth2      Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:04:E2:80:3F:20

the output from iwconfig eth2 is:

OK I made gatway 192.168.1.150

But no ping and no answer.
The notebook card found the card in the router and I could connect to the
card
in the router but no ping or any other connection is possible.

Any other idea???
iwconfig says 54Mbit and the notebook card is 11MKbit is it a problem?
