[NTLK] Wireless success

Just for the record, I have successfully used a Linksys Network PC
Card, WPC11, ver. 3, in the Newton 2100. This required, in addititon
to Hiroshi Noguchi's driver, <http://www.ff.iij4u.or.jp/~ngc/eng/
newtwave.htm>, the More Wi-Fi Cards and Lantern packages from <http://
www.kallisys.com/newton/morewifi/en>.

With this card, I can work with NCU over AppleTalk.

However, a problem remains using TCP/IP, which does not work. The
only clue I have comes from Mail V, which says "No protocol driver
for this link is available. Can't establish a link." To me this means
that there is no TCP/IP stack available, even though I have NIE 2
installed. This doesn't suggest to me a problem with the Wi-Fi card,
but perhaps it is the hardware.

Any suggestions?
