OK, so the archive is indeed useful. I found out I needed not only
this stuff but also NIE 2.0 and a soft reset.

So, I've got the card recognized, setup using appletalk, put in the
SSID, and no WEP for now. I've set up internet setup 2.0 for DHCP on a
generic connection using the WaveLAN IEE card, etc.

But no light on the card. At least it only turned on for 5 seconds or
so during as soon as its inserted, but none after that.

Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ed Dyer
