Old Lucent Bronze Card w/powerbook
I have an old lucent "bronze" 802.11 card and I cant seem to get the card to work in my OLD powerbook 1400cs running OS9.1. If I load the drivers "wavelan" that came with the card it says cannot open control panel with this OS. If I load the orinoco 6.3 or 7.2 drivers I found, then it says my firmware in my card needs updated. I tried to update the firmware on a PC with several different updates that I found and nothing seems to work. Dows anybody out there have the correct software or firmware they can post for me or step me through how I can make this work? If all else fails a suggestion to a CHEAP card that would work with the setup would be greatly appreciated. THANK YOU!

The ORiNOCO / Lucent Bronze cards were 802.11 DSSS, 2mbps only. Note the lack of any suffix (b, g, a, etc.) Basically, they are useless for use with Macs.
