Hi Jeremy,

Thank you for your response. Based on your suggestion, I found a Proxim Orinoco Wireless 802.11b PCMCIA Card for sale. I don't have the exact model # yet, but hope to get the info soon. I'm a little leery of it since it is a "Proxim Orinoco" wireless card instead of just a "Orinoco" card. Should I be concerned about the difference?

I found some information that indicates the OEM Orinoco cards can be upgraded to the highest quality Orinoco by performing firmware upgrades. Do you think this Proxim Orinoco card could be firmware upgraded to the true Orinoco model?

Would you recommend rather that I wait to see if it works in my Windows 98 laptop / LinkSys Compact Wireless router (WRT54GC) setup first before determining whether to upgrade it (i.e applying the "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." philosophy)?

Thanks in advance for making time to assist me with this.

Sincerely,
Don
