Are you inserting the card before or after you boot the system?

Can you post the exact make and model of the laptop?

Also, pleae confirm that this is a cardbus adapter that you are using? This is an unusual card and I can't find much on it. Prism chipset?

I am inserting the card after it boots up.

It is a Dell D810 laptop.

The chipset is Prism 2.5. This link pretty much has the specs on the card I am trying to use. http://www.seattlewireless.net/index.cgi/SenaoCard

Thanks for your help.

OK, as long as you are sure it is a prism 2 based chip.

There apparently are a few models/revisions of this card.

See the link that I found from yours on the subject here. Note section 4 on identifying the chipset by the FCC ID number.

Try inserting the card before you boot up. I have no idea if hotplugging this catd works.

What methods have you tried to get it working, or how do you know that it is not detected?
