Question Linuxant +Netgear WG511


Hi! I am a noob, especially when it comes to networking...I have read some other posts about this caard, and followed their directions exactly (I think), and i can get the lights flashing, but when i try to get internet on the card, it doesn't work...Ok here's what i did:
1st i went to the linuxant website and downloaded their WLAN driver program
2nd I installed my card on windows and transfered the .inf and .sys files over
3rd The program does its stuff, and the green light turns on and the yellow light starts flashing
4th try the internet, no luck
5th restart, alot, but still no luck

So...does anyone have any ideas? Could it be that i have to buy the linuxant software? it says the one software version is without a license, but it doesn't say anything about that being a problem...well, any suggestions are much appreciated, thanks in advance
