hi warner, hmmm. i can report that the belkin works for me in its pci-pcmcia card in a 4.6 stable system. the pcmcia card seemed to behave the same as my other card in a laptop, but i lack the necessary infrastructure to actually test that setup. i did have to clone the smc pccard entry and put in the belkin strings. -steve On 30 Oct 2002 at 21:56, M.
