Hello.

 The Orinoco cards do not support WPA.

You will need to use WEP. Then set your router to do MAC addressing, that
will keep the freeloaders off.

Wireless on a Wallstreet/1400 with OS 9 problems...

[Pacer]

Fellow PowerBook-philes,
I am attempting to get an Orinoco wireless card  working on one of my 
Wallstreets and my 1400, both of which run OS 9 and OS 8.6.

The problem so far:  It will not detect my Linksys access point using 
WPA encryption.

I am wondering is this is because I am using WPA instead of WEP 
encryption.  I can not figure out if there are WPA setting options on 
the card's software.

Has anyone else run across this problem?
Sincerely,
Pacer the Loon
