I cannot get my wireless card to work and its driving me crazy. Its a 2wire PCMCIA card 802.11g wireless adapter. H/W Rev 0.3. there is no furtehr info on the card. 2wire has no info on their web site about it. WinXP device manager says its using driver wlancig.sys. Its recognised as a 2wire
802.11g cardbus wireless LAN card #2 under network adapter in device manager. My PCMCIAI adapters are Texas Instruments PCI-1131 cardbus controllers. I loaded the wlancig.inf and sys file and tried installing that as well, but no luck. My PCMCIA slots are 32bit, one is a type II the other is a type II/III(IV)Zoomed Video.
This is really driving me nuts, Im installing different Linus distrubutions and reformating almost every hour and nothing seems to work.
I just need to know how to make sure the PCMCIA adapter is getting power first off. Ive narrowed my software choices to Knoppex, Puppy and Featherweight.(Xunabutu kept freezing and would not install)
Thanks
