You may have missed this recently posted on the yahoo ecomstation mailing
list by Roderick Klein:

"1. Wireless NIC support.

There is a closed beta of a driver to load windows network drivers under
OS/2/eComStation. Its working except more news on this in the coming 2 to
3 months.
(thats an estimate).  This will support the mayor 7 wireless chipsets."

>From prior posts in other mailing lists, IMO, I am confident that the PCI
Adapter Intel 2200 will be covered which is what my T42 has.  As for the
2100, do not know.

I do not have access to the above wireless chipsets.
