The card is v. 5, and I've been using ndiswrapper and the drivers from the CD to try and get the card to work with an older Thinkpad (i Series, model 2611-412). I can get the card to connect to the access point and can usually reach one site using either Dillo or FF. After that, the link goes down for a period of time. It will then come back briefly, only to go down again. At most, I can get an entire page to load before the link goes away. Most times, the link disappears before the whole page loads. It's not the card, because I'm using it on a T43 under DSL 2.2b with the same drivers, using the same AP, to post this and there are no problems.

I've tried both DSL 2.2 and 2.2b. I've also tried booting with the command "dsl noapic acpi=off nosmp", but there was no effect.

Any help or ideas on what to try next? If you need more info, just ask.
