Netgear WG511v2


I just recently bought this PCMCIA wireless card and I googled it to try and find some drivers, with minimal luck. I came across a couple of forums saying that the card worked in linux, with the prism54? Can anyone help?

run # lspci -v ; if it's an atheros card look at

http://madwifi.sourceforge.net/

get via cvs or download the latest tarball, be sure to have at least the kernelheaders for you kernel and follow the instructions to compile the module.

else google will tell..
