[Nottingham] Wireless PCI Cards

[Gareth Harcombe-Minson]

I tried the 0.2.0-7 version, I wasn't sure of the revisions...

I did evenventually get it working after 6 hours, by finding a different
driver that works with the card.

I went to here
http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Linux.Wireless.drivers.html

and found that the ADMTek drivers have been known to work with Belkin cards.

This driver does work with the Belkin Desktop wireless card (for future
reference) but its not brilliant.

Gareth.
