Are you trying to use GenMac for the Intel PRO/1000 - there are native OS/2 drivers from intel for this model - now whether the very latest version of PRO/1000 is different is a question, however, I would check the Intel website if I were you, you may be positively surprised. WiFi is likely to be a longer trail for some chipset on some versions of eComStation.

Hmm... I thought I'd heard that there were no native drivers, and I
thought I'd verified that.  I'll check again and report back.

Thanks,
Carl

The T60 Adapter is:
Device 109Ah PRO/1000 PL Network Connection
The Intel drivers are for:
Intel® PRO/1000 CT Network Connection
Intel® PRO/1000 GT Desktop Adapter
Intel® PRO/1000 MF Dual Port Server Adapter

Intel® PRO/1000 XF Server Adapter
Intel® PRO/1000 XT Low Profile Server Adapter
Intel® PRO/1000 XT Server Adapter
Now, unless one of the above is the same as the 'PL' version, I think
I'm still on the outside looking in...  Does anyone know?  Any way to
know which one to try?  Here's the URL where I found the above:

It's probably worth downloading v10 of PROOS2.exe at:

http://downloadcenter.intel.com/scripts-df-external/confirm.aspx?httpDown=http://downloadmirror.intel.com/df-support/9258/eng/PROOS2.exe&agr=&ProductID=245&DwnldId=9258&strOSs=&OSFullName=&lang=eng

and simply try it out.

Cheers/2
