Another tip,
I hope you have a back-up card or two...
1. Clear your Newton of all network programs and make a backup.
2. Make sure your backup is sound!
3. Wipe Newton.
4. Reload only drivers for networking and in their specific order. This step
is crucial, almost all networking problems stem from this mistake.
Here is the install order:
inetenbl.pkg
newtdev.pkg
enetsup.pkg
inetsup.pkg
farallon.pkg
lucentwavelan_v108a.pkg
I'm pulling this from my head, so I hope I got this right.
5. Test to see if you get connectivity, which I'm confident you will.
6. Restore your data and packages.
7. Test that all is well.
8. Make new backup.
Surf!
Best Regards,

I always assumed "labo" was some sort of rough translation for "lab" - Drive
Lab website.
Do you have mac filtering enabled? Do you have wep enabled? Any other
security settings on your WAP? WEP needs to be off, and if you have MAC
filtering, you need to make sure you enter the MAC for your Silver Turbo
card into your MAC filter list - which is easiest to get by putting the card
into a mac or windows laptop and running ifconfig or ipconfig, respectively.
Just as a confirmation, the "more wifi" package caused by Newton 2100 to
bomb/reboot/crash when I installed it with my Bronze Turbo card.
The basic wifi drivers work fine.
Try using your Silver Turbo card in a laptop or other PDA and getting that
working. Try to rule out that the card is broke and not that your Newt is
setup wrong.
