[Wirelessdriver-support] Cannot connect with Orinoco on PowerBook G3, but can connect with Airport on iBook

[Scott K. <ru...@be...>]

There is a public, wireless network at a local coffee shop. I can
connect to the network with no problem using an iBook with Airport card.
However, I cannot seem to connect to the network using the Orinoco card
on a PB G3.

When I enter the wireless network name under the WirelessConfig
preference panel, it shows a signal. That is, the PB "sees" the network.
But when I try to access the Internet or read email, I get nothing.

I have double checked my Network Settings preferences. Everything seems
as it should be. I should add that my PB with Orinoco works swimmingly
on my home network using a Linksys wireless router/switch.

The only thing I have yet to try is a manual IP config (vs. the current
DHCP setup). Is there a way in OS X to "discover" the DNS server
address(es) of the coffee shop's network using the working iBook and
Airport card?

Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions,
Scott
