Thanks for the response.
I'm starting to consider that the same situation might apply to my TP.
I guess it's time to look around for a usb-wifi-solution instead.
The BIOS-tests are all OK. Is there some kind of diagnostic program
that can test the pcmcia/cardbus-port? I guess such a software would
need a cardbus-card that is designed for testing/diagnostics.
