Well, only 16bit cards work on the Amiga and even then only those that are listed in the driver's documentation.

DonĀ“t worry, you can even use WLan cards if you want to, providing it has got a Prism2 chipset ...

The cards with "Linux WLAN" behind is can work on the Amiga1200 ...

Normal pcmcia networkcards on Aminet :

3c589.device is a SANA-II network driver for 3Com Etherlink III PC Cards
(PCMCIA cards). Note that not all 3Com cards work with this driver, and that
some compatible cards are rebranded by other manufacturers. See the
documentation in the archive for a list of compatible cards.

This is all very nice, but Dr Dude's got himself a 32-bit cardbus jobbie, *not* a 3Com card or a wireless card.
