Hello all:

It works! Apparently, all that I needed to do was after phase 3 of the installation, click on MTPS, click on Configure, click on OK, and click on Save - nothing more than that, no actual change is necessary. During the process MPTS told me that all was properly configured (!), but apparently the configuration was never before Saved. After rebooting wireless works as it should with my T40.

(As an aside, with my thinkpad A31p the above extra steps were not needed; wireless worked upon finishing the "easy installation".)

Now I am trying to clean up config.sys, based on Lewis' suggestions.

Many thanks to all who responded! This community is simply wonderful.
Best regards,
Lothar

After installing eCS2.0rc3 on my thinkpad T40 with a built-in PC minicard, Intel 2100, I tried in vain to connect to wireless networks. After installation, during boot I get a flashing message in green 'No valid hardware info in Protocol.ini for ("WRND32$ ")'. The icon on the eCenter is black and crossed out in red, when it should really be green and "alive". I am sure I clicked on wireless connection during installation and the system discovered the Intel 2100 mini-card. (Under Windows the wireless connections work with my T40 and mini-card.) Apparently, something did not load right - perhaps protocol.ini. I was told that a similar failure exist with rc3 and Intel 2200 in other thinkpads of the 40 series. What can I do to try for wireless connections? Any suggestion would be welcome.
