Angry Wg511t


Just got the pcmcia wlan cards working. Had some IRQ troubles (making the system freeze when card inserted) but solved it.
The problem now, is that when I insert my Netgear WG511T, it slows the system down wich starts to stutter heavy and becomes useless. My ACX100/111 cards works fine, it just the WG511T (Atheros chip).

Anyone with similar or same prolems, or ideas, hints?

Check to see if the WG5112 has a linux driver. That might be a problem. Or if it doesn't, try ndiswrapper.

Netgear WG511T does not have a linux driver. Search the forum for solutions. There are quite a few. You can use either madwifi or ndiswrapper.
