But only if it doesn't. I was trying to find out what kind of card
this was.

ray0 is the subject on which this thread started. I don't know the
card, and I thought it might be a lookalike, since you responded to
this thread.

OK, this is what you're looking for. In my /etc/defaults/pccard.conf
(-CURRENT), I have:
card "Cisco Systems" "340 Series Wireless LAN Adapter"
config auto "an" ?
insert /etc/pccard_ether $device start
remove /etc/pccard_ether $device stop
Do you have this? If not, put it into /etc/pccard.conf (not
/etc/defaults/pccard.conf), creating it if necessary, and see what
happens. If you do have it in one of the pccard.conf files, let's see
what the system says about it.
