You are bidding on a Lucent Orinoco WaveLan PCMCIA Wireless GOLD PC Card.
This item is in excellent condition.

This is the name brand card.

The card is 5V, and 16bit, so it will work with older as well as newer machines.

This card is capable of 802.11b @ 11mbps--in real terms, you would be able to transfer a 5 Megabyte file in about 3.5 Seconds. 11mbps is also faster than almost all Internet connections.

Got an older Macintosh laptop? This card will work in it-Compatable with OSes 7, 8, and 9 and possibly OSX.

System 7 to 9 drivers here ---> http://www.alksoft.com/personal/stuff.html

OSX drivers can be found here ---> http://wirelessdriver.sourceforge.net/download.html

This driver may not work for everyone, One person could not get it to work on a Powerbook G3 Pismo (Bronze Keyboard) running OSX. The driver here--> http://www.ioxperts.com/80211b_X.html seems to work for him, but I do not guarantee OSX compatability.

I found out why these weren"t working with Airport, I had to disable the Orinoco Driver to get Airport to work, I have now gotten Airport 2.0.2 to work with these cards on OS 9.1. May work with other versions of Airport and MacOS.

Also works with Windows 98SE/ME/2000/XP/Linux

Possibly compatible with Windows CE 211/212/3.0/4.0

This card will work with some versions of the Apple Newton Messagepad and the eMate. I just got an email from someone that got it to work in theirs. Check here for details.

This card will support 14 channels for worldwide support, but I will only activate them if shipping to a country that allows more than 11.

This card is an unlabeled Silver card upgraded to a GOLD Card.

This allows 128bit WEP encryption

This card has a range of 1750 feet, but tranfer rates will decline as the distance increases.

includes a port for an external antenna(MC connector), try using one of those chip cans or even an old satellite dish http://www.wwc.edu/~frohro/Airport/Primestar/Primestar.html they claim you can have full bandwidth at 10 miles.

I have been getting feedback on the wireless cards I have sold and buyers have been using them with success in Apple PowerBook 1400 running MacOS System 7.6.1. I have also used, and test these cards in my Powerbook G3 WallStreet running OS 9.1.

I have used these on a Windows Machine with a PCI Adapter and a USB Adapter (Plese check my other auctions)

One buyer has also used it in both Windows 2000 and Linux.

These pictures are of the 3rd party cards I hae been selling, but the only difference is a brand name and different stickers. MacOS 9 sees it as a Gold Card, it says 3rd party gold card, but that screenshot was taken with one of my offbrand cards(Yes, there is signal, but I have no idea where it is coming from--Just sitting in my home, the meter keeps changing and showing different networks and MAC addresses)
