"Error retrieving status" with Mac OS and AIR-PCM350/Aironet 350

Folks,

I have been looking through Cisco's support documents and cannot seem to find an answer to this problem.  I was hoping some of you might be able to help me out.

I've got a Cisco Aironet 350 (Model AIR-350PCM) PCMCIA wireless adapter.  I'm trying to use it on an Apple PowerBook G3, running Mac OS 9.2.2.  I have the Cisco drivers and utility installed.  Cisco did make drivers for this card for the Macintosh.

All I ever get when I boot up the wireless management utility is: "Error retrieving status."  I am getting a 169.254.x.x IP address from the adapter, which means DHCP isn't working properly.

It's worked fine under a couple of laptops running Windows XP.  And I have updated the firmware to the latest version.

And I've tried this on two different PowerBook G3s running the same version of the Mac OS, with the same drivers.  And I still get "error retrieving status."

If anyone can point me to a solution or an explanation, it would be appreciated.  Thank you.
