Welcome to IWETHEY!

New So is the built-in wireless not working for you?
I've had other reports where it does work for people on newer versions of Linux.

I'll go with pcmcia if I have to, but it would be nice not to have to.

Cheers,
Ben

New I haven't tried on the T40
since it has only been a couple of weeks since I installed the internal card. I've been using the PCMCIA on my network for years with no issues...and I believe that the chipset on the IBM card is supported at 802.11b...not sure about the higher speed capability.

Karsten popped a card into his penguin laptop and was on...and that party was several years back. Support for the cards is pretty good.
