2.6.2 Wireless, Netgear WG511T in particular


Ever since I upgraded to the 2.6.x kernels I can't get any wireless pcmcia cards to work. Previously I had the Microsoft MN-520 working in 2.4.22 but when I upgraded, it didn't work anymore. I tried reconfiguring the kernel many times assuming I forgot something, and maybe I did, but I never figured it out.
Now I have a new Netgear router and the WG511T pcmcia card. Can someone help me get this working??? I see no support for it in the kernel setup and I'm not sure what driver to use or what system adjustments I'll have to make.

Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

Just to update anyone interested, I have this card working with Slackware and the 2.6.3 kernel. I've added an entry to the HCL so check it out for all the information I've been able to get on it. Should help almost anyone in need.
