   ... And if you have a wireless PCMCIA Card from D-Link, you need to   
   install the HFA384x driver from Patrick Lafarguette. Find it at   
   bebits.com at the drivers section.   
   NOTE: Under BeOS and Zeta you don't have WEP. Disable it in the settings   
   file before you copy it to its folder .   
   Read the README file to become instructions for driver installation.
