Re: Old Orinoco Gold... what software do I need?

Hi all,

I'm using an old Orinoco Gold PCMCIA card. I finally found the driver
needed to make it work.
Now it connects to the Access Point when the laptop is turned on and
works fine.

The problem is that when I installed the driver, no other software was
installed. I think now
my computer considers it a simple network card and I have no way to
change the wireless
settings. The only way for me to change them, is to re-install the
card's driver (during driver
installation I'm prompted to select network, data encryption etc.). In
addition, I cannot initiate
an ad-hoc network like this...

I think there is a software like "Client Manager" or something like
this... But I cannot find it
and download it.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I use Orinoco gold 11abg card as well on my Thinkpad.
You can down load utility from their site(Proxim) or I use Thinkvantage
Access control.
