I recently bought two avaya wireless cards and an isa pc-card adaptor (a reference was found on the label of Orinoco) and finally got this adaptor recognized by SME v5.
I followed the following advise from AVAYA : On a RedHat 5.x thru 7.x, system, put this in the file "/etc/sysconfig/pcmcia": PCMCIA=yes PCIC=i82365 PCIC_OPTS="extra_sockets=1" CORE_OPTS= CARDMGR_OPTS= # For PCI adaptor's following advise was given : (NOT TESTED !!!) # # On a RedHat 5.x thru 7.x system, put this in the file "/etc/sysconfig/pcmcia": # PCMCIA=yes # PCIC=i82365 # PCIC_OPTS="irq_mode=0" # CORE_OPTS= # CARDMGR_OPTS= When I restarted the pcmcia service, I got the two beeps and messages in the message log Gordon was speaking of in the following mail : http://www.mail-archive.com/devinfo@lists.e- smith.org/msg05196.html So far I am with my setup. The rest will hopefully follow. The purpose is to bind this wireless card to eth2 with IP 192.168.100.2 (eth1 IP 192.168.100.1 wired internal network / eth0 Adsl) on my gateway. Little question ... For the wireless network, is 192.168.100.2 now the gateway for my portable or could I keep 192.168.100.1 (normal network) and will eth2(192.168.100.2) pass the request forward to eth1(192.168.100.1) ? The Michael Maxwell's Contributed HowTo (painfully disappeared before I made a copy or notes of it) is a great welcome.

Can Michael be contacted through this list, and if so can he please rectify the broken link (and maybe update the HowTo, which is apparently based on 4.1.x)?
