I'm afraid that I have some bad news for you. It seems that the reason for this card being listed as compatible by the linux-wlan-ng project is because some previous versions of it were based on the Prism chipsets. Later versions, including yours, are based on the Broadcom BCM4301 chipset, however, and it seems that there is not yet a Linux driver for that chipset.

There is an online petition to Broadcom urging them to release documentation for the chipset, so that Linux drivers can be created for it. Check it out here:

Well, thanks for all the help you gave me. I guess ill just have to wait for the new drivers.

This is a message i recieved forom linksys regarding linux:

Thank you for contacting Linksys Customer Support.

Unfortunately, we don't have drivers for Linux yet. Linksys product management is currently looking into this matter. This is to be fixed by a driver. Possible release date depends on the result of the driver testing. As of the moment, the driver release date is yet to be confirmed by product management. Just visit the Linksys website www.linksys.com for any update regarding this. I am sorry for the inconvenience.[/i]

Hey im bringing back this old question from 2003 and wondered if anyone can help me with the same deal. I tried a program (sorry forgot the name, something dis / wrapper something) that let you use windows drivers in linux. I installed what the site told me to but still I cant get the device to work. Any help please?
