I've had long correspondence with the NM team,
who agreed in the end that NM did not work with this device.
The driver is a standard part of the kernel distribution (orinoco_cs).
If NM doesn't work with this the fault lies with NM, in my opinion.
Incidentally, "iwlist eth0 scan" works perfectly with this card:
------------------------------------
[tim@elizabeth EllipticCurves]$ sudo iwlist eth0 scan
eth0 Scan completed :
Cell 01 - Address: 00:16:B6:DA:56:B4
ESSID:"dd-wrt"
Mode:Master
Frequency:2.467 GHz (Channel 12)
Signal level:-72 dBm Noise level:-95 dBm
