Notes: TI doesn’t release any chipset informations and no linux support is supplied by DLink or TI. At the moment (08/2004) there is a project for an open source driver for kernel 2.4.x and 2.6.x but is still in development phase: http://acx100.sourceforge.net/. Works even worse than cards with ACX100

Comments (this is where other people comment on the entry):

This card (WG311v2) worked perfectly for me out of the box with Ubuntu Edgy. No Ndiswrapper required. The WG311v3 did NOT work at all (even with ndiswrapper).

One word: ndiswrapper ->http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Netgear\_WG311\_v2 ->http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/mediawiki/index.php/Suse\_Professional\_9.x
