[NTLUG:Discuss] Wireless PCMCI driver software problme

[terry]

I've just aquired a Wireless PCMCIA NIC for my laptop from LanReady.  
Model is: rtl8180 or "RealTech 8180 (mini)PCI PCI"  
My laptop runs RedHat 7.3

The cd that ships with it has only one file in the "LINUX" directory: 
 rtl8180_rh73.o
The downlodadable install program from LanReady.com/download is:
Install_RH73_101_0121.tar.gz

It unpacks with an "Install" directory where the only option is   ./install
This is the output of that command:
====================================
]# ./install
ADM8211 install begain.....
Which type do you want to install ADMtek8211 WLAN driver(1/2)?
1.CardBus
2.miniPCI/PCI
2
The wireless-tools had been installed
kwifimanager had been installed
We will remove the old pci-scan.o and install a new one

We will remove the old 8211.o and install a new one

Install Success. Congratulation!

You can use iwconfig or kwifimanager to setup your WLAN

Please reboot your system to take effect

You can use netconfig to configure your network
