There was a time I was having problem with my WiFi card and my card was
not supported by Netgear. I have Netgear WL511v2. V1 cards are supported
by Prism52.org drivers but NOT v2's. A few days ago, I got it working
using ndiswrapper ( http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/ ) and WinXP
driver from the CD that came with my WiFi card. Works like a charm. I
believed the way ndiswrapper work on Horay is broken but I installed
Breezy and it all good.
You need to find out what chipset your card use in order for us to point
out which driver you need to use on Linux natively. Other than that,
there always is ndiswrapper as an option (although I'd advise against it
and give your money to those who develop Linux native driver).
Check this one out (
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/history/350612 ) since they said
your card support Linux with native driver.
Hope this helps.
