I found out the the *.nif file that comes with the card set the limits
for the setting in OS/2 configuration. I simply changed the range in
the *.nif file and was able to set the SLOT to 18 using OS/2 MPTS
configuration. That's the number the DIAG.EXE is reporting it is
suppose to be.

I still haven't been able to get OS/2 to see the card. I'm at a loss of
what to do next. I left and message of www.d-link.com but, as expected,
no reply.
