I have sent a note to Engineering asking about the power support for 2
200mw cards. Are you using PoE for this application?

ouch, that sucks.
I have a similar situation with a backup link. I have an AP-1000 with 1
Orinoco card that services the local area and the secondary card is a
backup to the 5.8ghz trango radio I have. I figured I might as well use
that slot for something. I've lost the link twice, (the backup one) and
replaced the Orinoco card both times....it died again a few days ago.
I'm not sure what the deal is but that slot keeps killing any PC card I
put in it.
Anyway, back to your issue, I have seen where a card can go bad and the
AP won't completely boot. I've not seen where a card will go bad and
the ap will complete its boot process. So, if something failed...it's
probably beyond the transmitter/receiver in the PC card. Since you said
you unplugged the board for like 30 minutes, I'd guess the board is
still fine
but your radios are dead. Either that or water in a connector? If I
had
to drive 90 minutes to get there, I'd take a new board, pigtails,
radios, antennas and feed line.
I don't like to make second trips. Do you need 200mW cards in that
setup?
If not....use standard Orinoco cards, you'll probably have better luck.
