There are additional settings required so that the wireless units connect to each other-
Things like DHCP, setting IP addresses, SSID, and WEP.
I bought a D-Link PCI card and wireless router, and all of the settings out of the box connected except that I had to assign an IP to the card in the desktop.
Initial settings:
No DHCP, No WEP, SSID set to the word "default".
The manual on their CD told how to set an IP for the desktop card, then I could connect. After connecting to the router, you can tell it to change how it works, for instance turning on DHCP and changing your SSID. After this your PC won't connect any more until you change ITS settings to match.
When I put a SMC wireless card in the Axim, I changed its settings pretty easily to match my wireless router and it would connect.
