Lewis:
NETBIND?  Sorry, it doesn't ring any bells with me!
Can you give me a clue as to what it does and where to find it?.
Is it already on my PC?
Looking in the "Lan Adapter and Protocol Config." the W168CX0023.nif is 
selected
and under that we have "0 - IBMIEE 802.2" and "0 - IBMTCP/IP".
In the list of Network Cards there is a "IBM High Rate Wireless LAN PC 
Card-128"
which sounds interesting. 
Booting doesn't hang.
