[Wirelessdriver-support] Orinoco Gold can't recognize Airport base station

[John E. L. <joh...@ea...>]

I have an Apple Powerbook G3 (bronze keyboard - 333MHz, 320MB memory), 
OS X 10.2.6, an Airport Dual Ethernet base station, a Proxim Orinoco 
Gold wireless PC Card, and have downloaded and installed your 
WirelessDriverBeta5_1.1.dmg driver. I followed your installation 
instructions closely, successfully installing the software. After 
rebooting, I opened System Preferences, clicked on the Network panel 
and set it up as illustrated in your instructions (showing en1, 
configuring manually and entering the IP address of my cable modem 
ISP), opened WirelessConfig and completed it by entering the name of 
our wireless network (which is successfully being used by other 
computers in our house - both wired and with Airport cards), selecting 
128-bit WEP encryption (first entering our actual text password, 
clicking Apply Now and then having it converted to hex code).

I have repeatedly tried to get the PC Card to recognize the base 
station using the Airport Admin Utility, but with no success. It simply 
doesn't recognize it, no matter what I've done over the last several (I 
couldn't admit how many) hours!

Please advise when you can.

Thank you.
