Subject: [OS2Wireless] ORiNOCO Silver card - need help part 2

Wow wow!  Careful with DLink wifi cards!
Most of them use a prism chipset, ok, but the firmware
is not intersil NOR Lucent/agere but Texas
Instruments.
Experience has learned that wifi cards with ti
firmware lock up in case of large file transfers.
Also, it is possible that other chipsets may present
the same symptoms: radio on/off repeatedly.

Anyway, the person who wanted to get the Orinoco Gold
cards going on OS/2 needs either the Artem Universal
driver, or Generirc Prism LATEST Release Candidate.

Regards, JB/2.
