Thanks for all your hard work to make this card work. I'd resigned
myself to rotating through my collection of wireless cards for this
laptop, even though I had the 2200BG card in it. The laptop is too
much of a pita to disassemble to insert a new minipci card in it.
One thing that I have to do with this card that I don't have to do
with my wi and an based cards is set the ssid like so:
ifconfig ndis media autoselect ssid MyNetIsCool up
before I do the dhclient (and thanks for suggesting this workaround,
btw).
Once again, thanks for the working hardware!
