Well, I'm going to be installing a new SMC Ultra card in my gateway box this week (moving from Frame Relay to Wireless. :), and I know the settings on it are correct. It'll have an old card, and a new card but it will be running 2.1.5. If you can give me the patch to enable 0WS on the 2.1.5 driver I'll enable it to see if it breaks my box with either card, since I'll have one of the older SMC Ultra's and a brand-new SMC Ultra in it.
