iface wlan0 inet staticThe drivers don't appear to survive suspend/resume. They do with the following foul hack. Make a file named /etc/apm/event.d/wlan (again the name may vary if you aren't using debian), containing something like this .
# join group
pre-up /sbin/wlanctl-ng wlan0 lnxreq_autojoin ssid='' authtype=opensystem

The T23 sports a Lucent Win modem (otherwise known as a Lin modem).Michael Rowe writes (& I haven't tried this either):

Though I think most of the information is artificially manufactured by the modem driver (since it also claims to have a 16550 UART which i know
it doesn't).
IBM supplies a driver that is billed as working with a Lucent win modem in the T22 and other models, so it may work here as well (i'm trying it), which
you can find here . This is source only, and only for kernel v2.2, but it may work with my kernel v2.4 as well. I'm trying it. Note that I found this by going to "drivers and downloads" on their site and searching on "linux modem notebook".
As it turns out, the version on the IBM site is a little old. There is a newer one (6.00b6) available here that appears to work perfectly! ... it loads the modules correctly, and responds to AT commands... Only getting a 28k at the moment, but that's as likely as not my crappy phone line.
