Well worth doing - very nice to be able to use the laptop without wires..

Well - not sure what chipset the Jacaranda Blue uses - but if it's a
Prism it should work with the available OS/2 drivers.
Sometime soon, hopefully an update to Genmac to work with Wireless Winxx
drivers should be available and you may be able to use the T41 wireless
facilities (Daniela has already reported it was working with here Intel
2200BG laptop at 55MBps).

Do yourself a favour and get the Xworkplace WLan widget - makes
configuration much easier. Either assign a static IP or let your router
or Wireless Access Point assign a DHCP address.
Does your existing router have wireless functionality or you need to buy
a new one?
Cheers,
Paul.
