Thanks to all who helped.  I was able to get the Linksys WMP54G 
"wireless" adapter
working with ndiswrapper and the drivers on the Linksys CDROM.

Now I have two FC-5 boxes and an HP6840 printer running via the Netgear 
WGR614 router
which also connects my daughters Mac to the RF link via an ethernet port.
