I have no experience with these drivers, so I'm only able to give some 
hints to my best knowledge. This discussion is not related to vlc, so I 
think we should better take it off-line.

Do you have an WLAN Access Point (AP) ?

The /etc/pcmcia/wireless.opts configure your WLAN card and how your 
cards work together (managed mode or ad-hoc mode).
The /etc/pcmcia/network.opts configure the networking for the network 
card. In your case the WLAN card.
