in a thinkpad 390x running eCS 1.1...
the Belkin card is reconized by the card service... as being in..
no irq\memory or I/0 is showen..
the IBM wifi stat utility does not see any card...
I am using the IBMwifi2-2 (generic) prism driver..
the only error I see in the LanTran Log is
LT0055...
the IBM driver is binding to the mac...
no errors on bootup...
Anyone have an idea what is wrong.. this is a supported pcmcia card.

Did you ever finally get this to work? I've had a couple inquiries from people recently about this card which is listed on the OS/2 Compatible Hardware site. I've only seen one post on the os2-wireless_users mailing list from someone using it successfully.

TIA

There are drivers for RealTek at http://hobbes.nmsu.edu (does it use RealTek Chipset? - one can find out from http://www.belkin.com site [which is where I found that my Belkin low profile pci card uses RealTek 8319 chipset]). There might be updated drivers for it at http://www.ecomstation.com at the members download section. If I recall correctly, there is also an updated pccard drivers at the eCS download section too.

Sorry never did get the Belkin card to work, but to be fare I could not
get it to work in a windoz machine either, thinking it must be a bad
card, and Belkin is not being of any help, sent them 2 emails and no
reply from them...
I'm having a friend who is more into windoz then I am checking it
out...
Best

There is information on this site on it. According to the site, one can configure it from a browsers. Unfortunately it does not say which chipset is used.
