Hey, that's a great idea.. I never thought of that .. I could access #hpcdev on EFNet on my HPC


this is why i wanted to buy a hpc in the first place.

WiFi card question. Been watching e-bay for a wifi card with the same part number as the Lucent Orinoco Silver PC24E-H-FC. Will all the cards with the PC24E-H-FC have the same compatability? I've noticed there are several cards that share the same part number.

I went for the genuine Lucent card. CmoneX rightly points out not to get an Avaya or Proxim since these sporadically exhibit incompatibility issues.

Problem is there are so many Lucent chipset WiFi cards it's difficult to know which ones are fully compat and which ones require lots of stuffing around to get to work.

So, I just cut through the bs and only looked at getting a genuine Lucent.

they are usually no good for ce 2.0 and the question is about a ce 2.0 machine

and it is not "anaya", you spelt that wrong, it is "avaya" in reality

I bought a used Agere card - it is suppose to be Orinocco. So far so good. I installed the software on my 360lx and then put in the card - and it read the card right away. But I have not been around any hotspots to test it further.

Was watching a few on E-Bay and several were labeled "Lucent Avaya". Here's a link to one that already sold I was watching.

And here's an IBM one that's on E-Bay right now.

Also, any reason you wouldn't want "Gold" instead of "Silver"
