Yes, have confirmed in two places that that this D-Link card uses the
168C:0023 value.  By the PCI snooper and in the Win Registry.

Good.
We have come another step forward.
Under the GenMacs sign-on message when booting we now have the following:

Loaded for device : Unsupported DEVICE!!!  [168C:0023]  (WRND32$)

Looks right.
I think that means that the s/w is now able to use the W168Cx0023.nif and
the PROTOCOL.ini files and that they are probably as good as you are going
to get them.
The proof of the pudding will be whether NETBIND is able to run without hanging and whether you can actually carry traffic. Once you can confirm that, then you should run netio (download the OS/2 version from here: http://www.ars.de/ars/ars.nsf/docs/netio ) and get some objective measurements of performance.

Good work!
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?
There is a call to NETBIND in your CONFIG.SYS. That's what *binds* the protocol(s) to the card driver...
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.

Okay... But does it *work*? What does XWLAN say? Can it scan for a connection and can you associate and get an IP address.

Also, why do you have IBMIEEE 802.2 bound? You surely don't need this for this card...
