the patch is for -CURRENT (i.e. the 5.x branch) and is not for the 4.10 
branch which m0n0 1.1 is based on. however, i have ported the patch over to 
compile cleanly on 4.10 and will be sending the resulting wicontrol binary 
over to you in private email. you could use m0n0wall's exec.php to copy it 
into /usr/sbin on the m0n0wall and test it there.

testing it with my lucent orinoco silver showed that the orinoco silver 
didnt have the xmit power registers which the patch to wicontrol was trying 
to read/write. don't know if it'll work on your card.
