2. Netgear router WGR614v7
3. Netgear wireless card WG311v3

Software
1. Fedora core 7
2. ndiswraper 1.9
3. Installed win xp .INF file with ndiswraper
4. configured as per the instruction from web (some forums)
5. installed and configured propertly
6. iwconfig wlan0 scan - giving some other network access points, but my access point not in the list

If you don't see your router then is the ssid being broadcast?
Also the first thing to do is try to make a clean unsecured connection. Meaning no wep, wpa, wpa2 enabled on the router. Once you can do this then reenable security and configure that portion.

Router ssid already broad casted and am getting the wireless connection in my laptop with Ubuntu & WEP 64 bit Hex encryption and it is working fine.

But the issue is with my desktops Fedora 7 with Netgear WG311v3.

No idea as to why Fedora would not use the same piece of hardware as the Ubuntu install to see the router.
