At least with the older driver, different versions of the card required different link flags, despite what was set in the EPROM. Try doing a: ifconfig inet ... -link0 link1 *or* ifconfig inet ... link0 -link1 and see if it acts normally. Also, I've noticed that sometimes it won't switch correctly 'on the fly', and I need to remove, modify the settings in /etc/rc.conf, and then re-insert the card to have it 'do the right thing'. (I've got the link settings in my ifconfig_pccard line so I can easily switch between the different network settings...)
