Free program like Linux ant?

OK, I realy want to have the DWL-G630 wireless card I plan on getting (it has a great price and will sure to be compatable with the router I am getting...)...unfortunately there are no linux drivers for it

So, I come accross linuxant...it seems great but then I see the price tag...

I was just wondering if there is any free alturnative to Linuxant that I can use, or if someone can somehow come up wtiha driver for the DWL-G630 wireless card...I searched for quite a long time and came up with nothing

there is madwifi at www.sourceforge.net
it's almost identical to the ones linuxant sells.
but the difference is the people who write madwifi doesn't want any money.
you also might want to look at , this person used ndiswrapper to get his card,same as yours, working http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...hreadid=202859

Wow, thanks a lot

So I guess I will go ahead and buy it...chances are I will get it to work
