Alright, i have an old Dell Latitude C600 and it was previously equipped with an AIR-MP20B Wireless LAN card, and i've been searching for the correct driver for this card for three days now.
I've tried to follow this link here, which looked promising, but ended up in failure as well:
http://www.cisco.com/public/sw-center/sw-wireless3.shtml
Please, I'm begging, can someone point me in the right direction? This entire cisco site is a maze and it just gives me headaches. Please, please, help. This is the only computer i have. I'm opening this discussion from a freinds laptop.
Thanks so much for reading this.

There's so many people answering questions, yet not a single person can help me. Please, isn't there anyone out there with the same problem as me? I mean, are there any other adapters that are compatible with this wireless card? I have absolutely no clue what to do here. Please someone help?

Hey, thanks for the response. It's great to finally get a response. Which adapter would you suggest? I have the AIR-MP20B LAN Card and i don't see a download for that card anywhere on the provided page. Any suggestions?
Thanks again. Thanks so much.
EDIT**
I tried the all of these:
And it tells me the installation is complete and that the drivers will be installed when the card is inserted. So i'm assuming that means it couldn't find my LAN card or version. I'm at a loss.. :/

Hi John,
I just researched and found that, if the Mini PCI cards are used on the third party LAPTOPS then for support i guess u need t ocontact the LAPTOP vendor.. they may help you in getting the driver for the same.. we do not have the driver for this AFAIK.. lemme search again..
in the mean time it will be great if yo could post the same in DELL forun as well..

Thanks again for the response. And yes, i also posted this on the dell community a few days ago and they were the ones who told me to try and contact the manufacturer of the LAN card. Which is Cisco.
I've got the AIR-MP20B Wireless LAN Module 2.4Ghz 11mbps, and i am wondering if maybe this card is just so old that there is no support for it.. or even correct drivers because i can't find anything at all on this card. I also installed the ACU and i can't even do anything at all because it says LAN card not installed/detected. This sure is a bummer...
Yeah i just keep trying all the buttons on the client utility and all it ever says is: "Cannot access the Wireless LAN Adapter!"

yes you are correct.. this card is End of support and End of Sale as well.. here is the link...
u need to upgrade your Card to either CB21 or PI21

Yeah i figured it would end like this. This laptop is super old and so is the hardware.. :/ Guess i'll just have to go and buy a new model LAN card.
Thanks for all the help though. You couldn't have been more helpful.
Adios!
