This product is linux compatable (ver.3 at least). It required the use of LinuxAnt's Driver Loader (www.linuxant.com). Cost's $20 to buy, but is worth it. The drivers that were loaded are the ones off the CD (Bel6001.inf and Bel6001.sys in the root of the driver CD). I then had to set the setting using the web interface, manually entering my AP's MAC (in the Network Address box, you need to click on the "Advanced" button), the channel number, the SSID and selecting Infrastructure mode. I then set the IP of the interface (it created eth0 as the interface) in /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and manually set the DNS servers I use in /etc/resolv.conf AFAIK that's all thats required. I confirm the connection quality by using kwifimanager, which is in a kdenetwork-kwifimanager package with Mandrake.

PLEASE NOTE ver.3 of this card is based on the RealTek 8180 chipset. Drivers are available from their site, but I have as yet got it to work. There is a lot of info here as how to get it to work. I will post again when and if I get it to work. Nah!

I have had no problems with this apart from when running XF86Config myself, where I can never seem to press the right keys to get it working, though this is likely to be because of my inexperience :D . It works like a charm in everything distro I have tried that will configure it for you.
