PCMCIA Help

Hello,
I have a problem, I bought a PCMCIA Ethernet Card on the web, it's the "NEC
WL11C", when I plug it into my laptop, it won't be detected by windows : I
hear the bell, and then I choose the folder where the driver is, windows
sets it up, reboot, and then I can't use it.

Please help.

Thank you

T

wireless lan cards are a bit "hit and miss" in windows 98 ...are you sure
you have compatible drivers for your version of Windows ?

Might be , I already tried this link when I was looking for the driver at
first, and this link doesn't work, the download won't start.
Though it's the only driver I could find on the web, looking like what I
need.

Thanks anyway (if *you* can download it, please let me now how ).

this looks to be a good place to start ...you may have to try a couple of
chipset drivers to find the one that works for you.
watch the word wrap

I think I found what you need at the folowwing address:

I bought the same PCMCIA modem (Nec aterm WL11c) in Japan, without the
driver, and now it works

hope that helps
