I'm using a 3com OfficeConnect 11g, model number 3CRWE154G72 with a
version 1.0 label without problems using WEP. I downloaded the firmware
a few weeks ago per the link given in the README.

The only things that are a bit annoying are that

- I'm still unable to use WPA as per my previous posting -- any comments
on that would still be appreciated

- my network interface sometimes shuts down without any apparent reason,
and I don't get any output in the logs at all. It does not appear to be
related to my DHCP server -- the leases are long enough easily. If
somebody can suggest where to start looking for clues, that'd be much
appreciated. 

Good luck,
Christian.
