I'm not having any luck finding pointers to that work. Got any : further info ? Intel have quite a few posibilities and I have little : wish to kill the card by downloading the wrong firmware; : : http://support.intel.com/support/network/adapter/pro100/21397b.htm : : Even after this upgrade is it likely to work ? If you're willing and : have time to work on it I'll happily just send you the card, can : probably just keep it. Yes. I try very hard to make sure that all the wireless cards I have always work. I'll send you email off list. However, for the IBM Lan Entry cards I have, that's not an option because they are so old (and undocumented). The webgear Raylink cards also suffer from neglect because I don't have a FS base station. The cnw based cards probe, but I don't check to see if they work. All the other wireless cards that I have do work, except I think I broke awi in NEWCARD.
