Works well with ndiswrapper from scourgeforge.net. Ndiswrapper uses the lsipnds.inf file not the other inf file that is/might be on the CD

I suggest you use ndiswrapper with this card. The guys in the forum helped me to get this to work.

To get this card to work, compile/install ndiswrapper, then instead of using the WMP11NDS.INF inf file, use the LSIPNDS.INF inf file. It should be on the CD. You can download it from Linksys's web site. But after you install the LSIPNDS.INF file, just do modprobe ndiswrapper. Then you should be able to iwconfig it.
