I take it your old laptop is not Wi-Fi ready? In that case, you may be best served by using one of those bridge devices where you will have full support of the hardware, independent of the OS. None of the card drivers supports WPA under OS/2, of that I am certain.


Lewis,

I thought GenMac supported WPA.  
And it does, per Robert's comments.  However, until he mentioned it, I was not aware of *any* support in GenMAC for PC Card devices, so my statement was directed solely at Jens' builds and the couple other manufacturer-provided drivers I have seen. Apologies for not being clear.
Have you used any wireless bridge devices you can recommend?

I have not used any, sorry.
