toshiba satellite 205 wireless networking

You probably need to change the PC Card slot (and "PC Card" is the
correct terminology, not PCMCIA card) from 16-bit to 32-bit or 16/32-bit
(32-bit is also known as "Cardbus" ). It's possible that Cardbus is not
supported on that model of laptop, although I believe that it is. Check
the BIOS, there should be a setting for this.
