> - Is the card Orinoco or Dell branded (unfortunately this *does* make a
> difference)?

Just bought a clearance IBM card that is a rebranded Lucent/Orinoco
Silver... and it sucks:

* The software is old Lucent software. You can't use Lucent client
software with this card due to how it identifies itself (in Windows)

* The driver is similarly old. Can't use the Lucent driver without mega
hassles.

The card, however, works great in my AP-1000  - just plug it in, and off
it goes. Which makes sense, since it is the same device as a Lucent
Silver.

Does anyone know of a way to reflash these private label cards, either in
Windows or Linux, so that they "become" normal Orinocos? I read about the
Airport hack, but don't have access to one :(

Thanks.
