I have an SMC Access Point on the way should be here any day.

NetGear MA311 using the miniPCI driver which installed and worked great
without a hitch.

Yes both cards have static IP's assinged.  I booted up my laptop into Win2K
and the card works fine communicating with the Desktop with it running eCS or
Win98.

One other thing on my laptop is that it doesn't even recognize that the card
is there until I reseat it during or after bootup.  The power light doesn't
even come on until I reseat when booting eCS.

Thanks,
Sam
