Howdy list,

I'm trying to upgrade the firmware on a Prism II PCMCIA card
that originally lived inside a Siemens Speedstream 2623 wireless
access point.

It works very well, from what I can tell (no access point to test
with) under FreeBSD:

wi1: <AWLAN WS8P/IEEE> at port 0x100-0x13f irq 9 function 0 config 1 on pccard0
wi1: 802.11 address: 00:01:24:f0:b4:61
wi1: using RF:PRISM2 MAC:HFA3841 CARD:HWB3163 rev.B
wi1: Intersil Firmware: Primary (0.3.0), Station (0.8.3)
wi1: 11b rates: 1Mbps 2Mbps 5.5Mbps 11Mbps

However, in order to upgrade that ancient firmware with WinUpdate, I need a
windows driver to run this card.

Does anyone know where I can find a Prism II reference driver? Or an OEM driver
that will work with this card?

Thanks!
