adapter in infrastructure mode. Will see signal in ad-
hoc, but will not do anything that way. Please somebody
help me. This is the second wireless card I have bought
for my dell one, Iblitzz and this microsoft card....both
get me the same damn error. what am I doing wrong?

Do you have a WAP or router for the NIC's to connect to? If you don't
you can't use infrastructure mode as it requires a central device for
the adapters to connect to.
