[MLB-WIRELESS] help req: Enterasys and Mac OS9

[Clae]

http://melbourne.wireless.org.au/wiki/?Apple links to an article 
called "Cross-Platform Wireless Networking" which tells you you have 
to include a $ sign before the key to tell the Airport software its a 
hex number.  The Orinoco util needs "Ox" before the key - not sure if 
that's an "oh" or a "zero".

Airport drivers should work with the card if the Orinoco and 
Enterasys drivers are removed.  Depending on the machine you might 
have to downgrade to Airport 1.1.

There might be other handy hints there too.

Clae.
