I've heard very, very bad thinks about Intel's Broadcom adapter in the Thinkpad forum.
Could you cosider switching to the Atheiros card?
I have that one running on my T43 w/o any problems - it has native OS/2 drivers.

I'm trying to get the Wireless to work on my T43 (2686-DJU). I have
the lan port active using the Broadcom 1 Gig Driver, but when I try
and get the GenMac drivers to work 2915/A/B/G, they do not load. I
can get the Intel 2200 Drivers to load via GenMac, but WLan reports
no driver loaded and the LanTran.log shows

WRND32$ Wrapper for bus: 4 slot: 2 Vendor x8086 Device: 0x4220
WRND32$ load Sys: "W29N50A.SYS" Error !
WRND32$ Wrapper Init ERROR !

Now GenMac show 2 2915 drives available. I have tried both and get
the following results:

During Boot I get a message

NO VALID HARDWARE FOUND FOR (WRND32$)

The PCI program reports that I have a PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network
Connection

I zapped the bios back to 1.24 as referenced by Lewis in an earlier
post.

Please note that is all with eCS V2.0 Beta 3.
