I concur on the Wireless Bridge method.  I currently use a Linksys Wet11 and have been very happy with it.  But with these new small footprint bridges coming  out I'm going to get one for my laptop so I don't need to worry about configuring two NIC's in OS/2.  It would even be a help on the XP side since the integrated WiFi in my Latitude D600 doesn't alway get as strong of a signal as my IBM High Rate 128.  With a bridge you can move it around the Hotel room for better reception and not move the laptop around.
Just my $.02,
Sam

This raises the question of whether there is any
802.11g-capable card that is supported, even if only in 802.11b mode --
the 802.11g mode would still be useful with Linux, which I am preparing
to install in the laptop machine. If not, I might resort to simply doing
all on-line work in Linux, with say, a Netgear 802.11g wifi card.
   


Check out the ASUS wl300g - antenna on one side and plugs into your rj45
on the other.  ZERO installation hassle (although you seem to have a magic
touch in that department <gg>).  Does 802.11G; configures from your
browser [may need a firmware update to use something besides IE] and
powers from the USB port.

AFAIK there are still NO 802.11g devices supported for OS2/eCS.
