Greetings all.......this IBM 365XD (type 2625 DEE) laptop is old.....no usb ports. I did manage years ago to install Win98SE. It works great...but i'd like to go wireless. On the side are two slots for the PCMCIA cards. One slot currently has a Megahertz model XJ2288 modem card in it. Does anyone have suggestions as to a wireless card that will fit this laptop with this OS....? Thanks.

try searching ebay etc for an IBM HIGH RATE WIRELESS LAN PCMCIA CARD. (FRU 22P4592) I bought one for $5 on ebay and it works on win95 upwards. Haven't tried it with win 3.11 yet. Drivers are available from Lenovo website and so are installation instructions.

That card was built by Lucent as the Orinoco. There's a gazillion different cards which are all identical internally but have different branding on them.

Those are all the SAME CARD.

COOL. Just keeping it in the family so to speak

Thanks everyone for the replies. As mentioned there is alot of cards out there....i just wasnt sure which one would work. I appreciate the time and effort on this. I'll post later on the progress.....i should have a card soon.

So any older 16bit wireless that has drivers for your OS should work.
