But what I don't understand is ... why one has to use the sio (serial ?!) driver with this card ??? This makes me wonder ! I assume one can only use one card in a Laptop at the same time ?? I noticed one has to place the RJ-45 plug in a 90 Degree angle onto the PCMCIA card connector. Right ?! So 2 cards one over the other won't work or am I wrong ? Another thing, do you think that this X-Jack construction is stable enough ???
