Proxim wireless card in FC1

Hello,
I am looking for tips on installing my Proxim wireless card in Fedora.
I have edited the load order so that PCMCIA services will be checked before Eth
1, where my card should be.  On the boot-up screen I see the message that Eth 1
failed and to check the cable.  Right now
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 is:
DEVICE=eth1
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
HWADDR=my MAC address
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet

Is there something in this file I need to change in order to make eth1
correspond to my PCMCIA card instead of a wired Ethernet cable?

Also, in /etc/pcmcia/config, both the driver (orinoco_cs) and the device
(Proxim, manfid: 0x0126, 0x0013) are listed.

Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks!~Caitlin
