Product Description:

This is the driver for the "Orinoco" card from Lucent, supported by the Mac.

What's new in this version:

Support has been restored for PowerPC PowerBook 1400 and 5300 models. There is still one Known Issue for these older systems. Please see the section 6 for details.

Support has been added to properly handle a new form of closed network which some base stations now use. These networks respond to scans with a blank name. Previously, closed networks did not respond at all.

Sleep stability has been improved on all systems.

Improved the behavior of the control strip when cards are removed and inserted.

Fix a system hang seen if a user notification message (like in response to trying to eject a busy card, for example) is displayed when a previous such message had not been dismissed by the user.

This is the Orinoco 7.2 driver that Proxim now makes very difficult to get. Works great with compatible cards, I use it with Dell TrueMobile 1150 on a PowerBook G3 (Lombard) with 9.2.2.

I wasn't able to find this by going through Proxim's "front door"--in spite of email xchange w/tech support...got it thanks to finding Derek K. Miller's fine site in Canada. Grab this driver while you still can! Here's the link:
