Hi,
I have the usb wireless netgear MA111v1 that uses the prism2 chipset, 
but I don't know how to get it working. I don't know the first thing 
about WiFi, so I'm properly missing the obvious. When I insert the card 
'dmesg' tells me the following:

[ 1282.079780] hub 1-0:1.0: over-current change on port 1
[ 1282.581753] usb 1-1: new full speed USB device using uhci_hcd and 
address 2
[ 1292.557617] prism2usb_init: prism2_usb.o: 0.2.2 Loaded
[ 1292.557647] prism2usb_init: dev_info is: prism2_usb
[ 1292.579606] usbcore: registered new driver prism2_usb

So the driver gets loaded, right? Next I type 'iwconfig' which gives me:

lo        no wireless extensions.
eth0      no wireless extensions.
sit0      no wireless extensions.
wlan0     no wireless extensions.

So I don't really know what to do. This card should work out of the box, 
so I'm a bit lost here. Any help would be appriciated.
