I did some further research on this issue as it also occurred under RedHat 8.0
as well as on Mandrake 9.0. The following lines added to the /etc/pcmcia file
allows the card to work under RedHat, though it will need to be tested on
Mandrake 9.1RC2 under stress:
card Netgear MA401
manfid 0x000b 0x7300
bind orinoco_cs
I'll run some tests with RC2 and see how it goes. However, someone set up with
industral-strength stress testing software may wish to test this and found
where the potential fail points are.

PC: Toshiba Satellite 1805-S273 laptop and NetGear MA401 Wireless Network PC Card
I am using the default profile and wireless profile. Since both networks are
dhcp, I attempted to set up both eth0 (internal LAN card) and eth1 (wireless
card) as dhcp. Although, I could ping my router and received a legitimate IP
address from the dhcp server, the DNS did not come through. The card works fine
on the same box when I dual boot into Windows.
The workaround I had to use was to give the machine a static IP address so that
I could enter the gateway and set DNS to the router's IP address (the router is
a Netgear which contains the dhcp server, firewall, and WAP.
The tool doesn't transfer my boot at start settings to the ifcfg files for the
interfaces that it produces. I had to manually tweak these files. The other
issue is that you can't ignore an interface. Typically, I use either the
internal LAN card or the wireless, but not both.
