This is probably more appropriate to mobile. That's where the PCCARD
folk hang out.

In any case, you probably need to add the appropriate setup using
wicontrol to /etc/pccard.conf. Put the wicontrol command(s) before
running pccard_ether. 

If you are not familiar with pccard.conf, find the entry for your card
in /etc/defaults/pccard.conf and copy it into /etc/pccard.conf. Then
make the appropriate edits. In this case, add the wicontrol command(s)
you need for the appropriate setup. 

You may also need to play with the IRQ for the WaveLAN card. If so,
replace the '?' in the config line with the desired IRQ.
