ifconfig doesn't show RUNNING

Hi. I am trying to get a prism2 PCMCIA card running under
Fedora 2.6.14_FC4 
with the 0.2.3 driver. The driver installs, recognizes the
card, etc. When I 
try ifconfig, the information returned does not show
RUNNING.

wlan0     Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:02:68:00:00:9B
          inet addr:192.168.0.2  Bcast:192.168.0.255 
Mask:255.255.255.0
          inet6 addr: fe80::202:68ff:fe00:9b/64 Scope:Link
          UP BROADCAST MULTICAST  MTU:1500  Metric:1
          RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0
          TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0
carrier:0
          collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000
          RX bytes:0 (0.0 b)  TX bytes:0 (0.0 b)
          Interrupt:3 Base address:0x2100

I'm not sure if it's related, but I can not ping the card.
It doesn't appear 
to be receiving packets.  Any ideas or suggestions are
greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
marcos

When you say you cannot ping the card, do you mean you
cannot ping it
from a remote machine or you cannot ping the card from the
machine
itself? If its the former, it's more likely a firewall
issue as from the
output of ifconfig it all looks good.
