This is the info for the card, 04:06.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Marvell Technology Group Ltd. 88w8335 [Libertas] 802.11b/g Wireless [11ab:1faa] (rev 03) but now that you have me going I would like to find a driver for this too, 04:07.0 Communication controller [0780]: Conexant Systems, Inc. HSF 56k Data/Fax Modem [14f1:2f20] I don't like using a wrapped driver either but IIRC I got the machine like this and usually it works fine but it really slow with current cable modem even when windoze machines are doing fine. I guess I could connect through the windoze machine but they are already swamped with 2 open browser windows. Once I learn to use ip and the routing tables I was going to make this the only machine in this area to have an active wireless connection and route all the others through it but will make a huge bottleneck at 20kBps when others are getting 250 routinely.
