I am a Linux newbie. I have got a Netgear ma401 wireless PCMCIA card that is detected by Mandrake 10 fine.

I foolishly rushed into the config file and entered what I thought were the right wireless details and when the PC rebooted- no light came on the card. In the start up commands I noticed it had something saying starting internet services and then some details on the card (prism 2).

In the hardware section, it is shown as eth1. Is there any chance I can remove the hardware in the control and start again? It dosen't appear to let you remove hardware like in windows control panel.

Any help much appreciated.

Thanks

what you mean by doing all the config files?
never heard of a rtl8180 based wireless card work right out of the box.
