[TriLUG] Questions on wireless cards

[Daniel Monjar]

MA401... I got 11Mb connection with the default stuff.  It was a little 
strange but people who don't poke around and look at dmesg logs would never 
see it (of course those types don't run Linux).  The RH install configured 
two eth ports for me.  eth0 was my internal 100Mb port and eth1 was the 
wireless card.  But it set both ports to be the same device type, a 3com 
XXXX something.  The laptop is at home so I can't check it out.  so on boot 
it trys to bring up eth1 and fails.... but a few lines later it brings up 
the pcmcia stuff and the wireless card comes on line.  It does mumble about 
being an unknown card type and says I should contact the vendor with the 
information but I never have...

Like I said, I only know all of this because of poking around.  the stuff 
just works.
