John, I've got the card in front of me now (wasn't in a machine at the moment.) It is a WMP11. On the edge of the card, (away from the antenna connection) it says mw251-1 REV:XA. I was just thinking there is another thing you might be missing. Even though it doesn't look like it, I believe this card is also a PCMCIA bridge. I seem to remember having to enable the PCMCIA devices in the kernel as well. That could cause it to not work.

Exactly what card? WMP11? I think that the Linksys WDT11 card seems to give different values for vendor (!?) and device values for its PCI ids - and it is a PCMCIA bridge onto the wireless network device. In fact I only see reference to WDT11 in if_wi_pci.c; although I could be looking in the wrong place, as there seems to be some stuff in if_wi_pccard.c Do you think I am asing in the right place? Thanks! -jc
