You have gotten farther than me with that module. I have never gotten it
to connect to anything. (It configures, but does nothing when I try and
connect.)
Since I have a working Athros card (using madwifi drivers), it is not very
urgent to me. Other people may argue that though. (I have gotten the
chipset to work with the ndiswrapper code at one point, but it no longer
works for me either.)
