When you put the card in the slot, a slip should come up, offering a
checkbox for "Use this card for AppleTalk" and a Setup button. Picking
the Setup button will take you to a screen where you can configure the
wireless options. If you're not getting a slip when you insert the
card, then you've either got the wrong driver installed, or your card
is not compatible with the driver. I'm voting the latter since you're
using Hiroshi's driver. Two options - you can try loading the "More
WiFi Cards" patch: http://www.kallisys.com/newton/morewifi/ , or
hopefully someone who's got wireless working with your card will chime
in. I know the Silver and Gold cards will work, not sure about the
Bronze.
