Subject: [OS2Wireless] anyone have GenMac and NETBIOS/TCPIP working?

On one of my TP T41s, I initially had a problem with NetBIOS not
starting after installing Genmac & xwlan 2.0.  A check of the network
settings didn't reveal the issue.  However Netscape had just locked up
the WPS forcing a reboot, so  I blamed the problem on Netscape and
restored from backup the entire boot drive.  I may have pointed the
finger at the wrong culprit, but this time when I installed xwlan and
genmac, NetBIOS over TCP/IP started properly.  The only thing, I recall
doing differently was xwlan standalone was already installed and
configured on another drive, so all I had to do was do the eCenter
install.  I did this before installing and switching to the genmac
driver.  Interestingly, this time I didn't get the 'disabled IP'
problem.

The other T41 had the 'disabled IP' problem and NetBIOS over TCP/IP
worked perfectly.  For this T41, I solved the 'disabled IP' problem by
comparing the OS2.INI registry settings between the two T41s and adding
the missing settings to the 1st T41 registry.  The 'disabled IP'
problem went away and I still had NetBIOS connectivity.
Go figure!

I have not tried xwlan 2.02 yet.  Will let you know what happens when I
'update' to 2.02

Cheers,

Chris
