hello matt

i would first see if you can get a wlan card from the same manufacturer what's your access point from .
next figure out if there are opensource driver - i heart that LINKSYS ... - and what's the REAL(!) chipset on the card.

manufacturer change them, without changing the product name !

some links:
not an idiot's guide, but for further reading:

old, but flawless running prism based cards:

no blame to the ndiswrapper developer, but i would keep the hands off that "construction" to get the card running
see jun mailing list -> "closed driver and illegal software..."
and and ....

okay ?
