Hello all,

I'm new to this list but I've been on the swap-list for years.

A client of mine has me investigating something strange on his Lombard,  
333/512MB OS 9.2.2

Proxim Skyline 802.11b PC Card for Notebooks

I just did a re-format and re-install of 9.2.1 and updated to 9.2.2

Next, I installed the drivers at  
http://www.proxim.com/support/all/orinoco/software/ 
dl2002_orinoco_client_r72_macos.html

but the setup utility can't find the card, nor does the 'wireless' LED  
on the card light up.

I've tried zapping PRAM and resetting power manager, and going back to  
8.6 with the stock CDs too.

I also tried the IOXperts generic wifi drivers (www.ioxperts.com) which  
also didn't report seeing a card.

Lastly, I tried a NetGear 802.11b Wireless PC Card (MA 401), which also  
wasn't recognized.


Anyone have any tips?  Is there a way to 'reset' the PC Card slot? I  
can't seem to find a way to make sure it's getting power.

Thanks,
-=Dennis=-

Have you tried the Proxim card with the Apple Airport drivers? I thought
that card was one of those that worked like an Airport card.

Does the card have an LED? If so, it should blink as the computer
starts up.

If you use Apple System Profiler, is the card slot listed? Due to vibration
or a shock, it is possible that the card cage has been dislodged. I don't
know if the Lombard is similar to the Wallstreet, but when I replaced mine
on my previous Wallstreet, it had been a major undertaking, as I had to
completely disassemble the Wallstreet to get to the PC card cage...
