I only see the : ma401ra in the output of dumpcis. i suspect this may just be a build : similar to the linksys cards which come in several versions. that being : said this card at least functions well. this is a pcmcia card not a : cardbus. This card does seem to work well on 5.x, though on this laptop : the appropriate slots are only working on current. The ra card is symbol based, while the non ra card is prism 2/3 based. I have no idea what the na card is. Warner
