To answer my own question, NetGear WG311 works with the madwifi-driver
package, at least in Managed mode (host-ap doesn't seem to work)

Please keep in mind that these D-Link products only get 22Mbps with other D-Link products.. I'm sure most of you knew that, but better safe then sorry :) and it't not even close to an 802.11g card, it's an 802.11b card with extra special d-link stuff to make it get to 22Mbps. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list

I strongly suspect the D-Link DWL-650+ is being talked about here. It's
not a true 802.11g card as far as I know, but it does have 22Mbps
speeds.
Driver here:
http://acx100.sf.net/
READ the forums there as to how to get it to work. The driver is still
experimental (0.01c didn't work for me, but 0.01d does).

Check the Wireless-Lan-Howto at

especially its "The Devices, the drivers section" at

Does anybody know if there is support for _any_ 802.11g card?

Is that a PCI card? The one I found with some googling showed a PCMCIA
version; I'd rather not have to run on a PCI-CardBus bridge.

Hi Ian,
I'm using a Netgear MA401 wireless card with gentoo; it works well. I have to plug in
the card after init finishes and starts the user session, but besides from that there's
no problem. I use a Netgear MR314 wireless DSL router which is the most stable network
device that I've used for years.
I also have a d-Link card at home, but I didn't manage to get it going with linux. Under
windows however it seems to work all right. Regards,
- Christian

RE: [gentoo-user] 802.11 cards
I use a linksys card with very good results. I would stay away from D-Link
as they seem to be lesser quality and change a lot (this could effect any
possible hardware mods or results with software drivers). I have no
experience with NetGear.
