Re: [Wirelessdriver-support] Proxim RangeLAN-DS Support

[Loren L. <ety...@mc...>]

Hi Rob,
I went out and purchased a LinkSYS WPC11 Wireless card, popped it on and it
worked right off the bat. I decided to try the RangeLAN-DS card again, and
it too now works...go figure... Thanks for all your help!
Do you know of a Mac OS 9 driver for wireless pc cards? And, are there
add-ons to allow for a signal meter on the menu bar? Thanks!

All the Best,
Loren
