What is the CIS?

Is it a fair summary to say...

*That enterasys cards, of the bulk buy vintage, benefit from
having the firmware updated.

* They don't actually become orinocos
.
* However you do need to  install an older orinoco driver so you
can use orinoco firmware upgrade utils because apparently
enterasys don't have an equivalent yet

*  This fooling of the system (that an enterasys ir really a
orinoco) is best done under windows  95 or 98. 

* Having upgraded the firmware then you go back to using the
latest enterasys driver and life is good especially if using a
*nix os

if this is a fair summary then what is best and where might one
go to find an older orinoco driver for 95-98 for os fooling purposes

Could I get a bit more detail on how one fools 95 or 98 into
thinking the enterasys on board is really an orinoco. I've tried
under 95 and had no joy

Kind Regards
