Hi all
I relay appreciate everyone that has taken the time to respond.
In my first letter I wrote that I have had my newton for 10 months, on
hindsight I have had it over a year.
I was given my 16mb card last Christmas. I have tried to Bootstrap.
Believe me. I tried first to get it going
with what it came with. But I am sure (now) the modem is dead. Before I
came to that conclusion, I was given my
16mb card. Then I bought my first Wifi card, before I opened it I found
it was the wrong voltage(it cant be returned).
Then I bought the card I now have.
I have installed ncu on my PowerBook and even dug out a 10 year old
windows PC ( Don't wont to offend but YuK!!).
I may sound cheep but I don't wont to spend more money on something
that may not work.
If the question is why I went with a wifi card, it is because I have a
net at home and work. If I get the card to work I can
use it to connect to my PowerBook also.
As far as the struggling along to learn more, well this may be true,
but I have.
The Newton is not the only thing I am working on. I just do not have
the time to continue to chase my own tail around.
Maybe I'll brake down and buy a cable to hook to the PC. I am afraid
this will be another dead end.
Thanks Lee
P.S. my PowerBook does not have a ir port apologies accepted.
  But I did try to sync it to a palm in hopes that would work. then I
could send drivers to my Palm then to newton.
