Thanks again Lewis, I'll try as you suggest later on today on the T43
when I get back to that location.
For Injoy to work I believe it needs its virtual or wrapper adapter to
be the 'conduit' to the actual Genmac Wifi adapter.
For what it's worth, here's a protocol.ini from a T20 (working setup)
using the Cisco 350 Wifi PCMCIA card and Xwlan and Injoy.
DriverName = DSWCH00$
FEATURE = NO
ADAPTERNAME = "Serenity Virtual Net Driver"
?
I think I might be out of luck until such a time as Xwlan has a manual
setting again to allow us to tell it which adapter to use.
But thanks anyway, and will try your suggestions.
cheers
