Just for clarification, this is what I've got now and it doesn't even seem to
come to life. I suspect that there is either something wrong with the card
or it doesn't work in my Compaq Armada 7400.
I asked D-Link and got an answer that is just precious:

Can you tell me if the DWL-650+ is known to work on a
Compaq Armada 7400 laptop?
I have one and I'm having a heck of a time getting the
DWL-650+ to come to life.
Did I miss your list of supported hardware?
Thank you for your time.

Products: DWL-650+
Thank you for contacting D-Link Tech Support Team!
According your problem described to us, here is our recommend solution:
if you system running you might not have the support for it.
wireless nic require alot of cpu times and memories.

Dontcha love answers like that? It gives you that nice "warm" feeling.
I've gone and ordered a DWL-650 (no "+") to replace it so that I can get the
damn link running.
I've got the 900+ access point, which SHOULD, accept connections from the
plain 650 until support for the 650+ comes along.

Sometimes when I get direction from management I have to stop, take a deep
breath, and ask myself what MacGyver would do in a situation like this.
