Hi,

Yes, I've got a Linksys WPC11 wireless PC Card working on my Thinkpad R40 with eComStation 1.1. Check out my review of the machine at : http://www.os2warp.be/index2.php?pageid=10&url=notebook2/ibm/TPR40.htm

Nice

Will it be possible that the Linksys - WPC54G - 54Mbps 802.11g works with the same driver ?

it will be great if someone with that hardware can test it out.

Probably depends on the chip on the card. You could ask Jonas Buys, or have a look at his site : www.os2warp.be

Hey Martin, did you figure out something regarding the Linksys 54mb wireless card, ie if works or not? Asking since I need an extra wireless card and I try with a D-Link DWL-650+ and this card is totally dead under OS2... No clue either what chip is used for this card, but if anyone have a tool to scan a pc- and pcmcia cards it would be great since it would be much faster to figure out if cards works or not based on the wireless chip used.

Yes, but you failed to mention that the driver is private, not for public use. So it does me no good if I don't have access to the driver.

I know about the LinkSys 11MB card but what about the 54MB card; anyone that have tried out with this card?
