RE: Problems with Netgear WG511v1 PCMCIA

Interesting, this link is broken too, but only for IE (I am using my desktop
right now)
I re-installed FireFox (long story behind that) and it works just fine.

OK, from the pictures it appears to be the WG511 V2 or V3, the front and
back labeling matches the label positions in the V3 pic
But, an lspci shows that it has the isl3890 chipset

I just downloaded the latest kernel (2.6.33.1), will build this afternoon
I already have the P%$ firmware for kernels above 2.6.28, so I can test
Will update later

Thank you very much

that's ancient.

you should give compat-wireless a try:

and keep your finger crossed...

First things first, are you really sure you got an WG511v1 and not the
v1.02?
Take a look at: http://daemonizer.de/prism54/wg511/ there you'll see
several pictures of different WG511 versions.

I can give you a working link, but first I need to know if this is a genuine
v1.
