Hi folks,
with Pavel Roskin's spectrum24_cs from [0] a finally got my Intel
2011B PC card working, though Intel support sent me the following
message about this card's interior:

Hello Joerg,

Thank you for contacting Intel(R) Technical Support.  The Intel(R) =
PRO/Wireless
+2011B LAN PC Card utilizes the Intersil Prism* 2.5 chipset documented =
here:

http://www.intersil.com/design/prism/ser-p25-11mbps.asp
http://www.intersil.com/design/prism/chipset.html

Open source drivers for this chipset are posted here:

http://www.linux-wlan.org

Please note that these drivers do not function with the Intel(R) =
PRO/Wireless
+2011B LAN PC Card in its downloaded state.  I believe this is mainly =
due to the+fact that the 2011B adapter contains no firmware.  Instead =
the firmware is
+loaded with the driver at runtime.

The latest firmware file used with Windows* systems can be downloaded =
with our  +Windows* XP driver here:

11_2011B_+WINXP_3.1.1.28.EXE
