I've got Netgear MR814v2 802.11b (it's also 802.11b, *not* 802.11g)
w/less router. For Windows 2000/RedHat Linux dual-bootable box
bought Netgear MA311 PCI Card. Under W2K installed driver, downloaded
from netgear.com web site. After that I've installed Linux on another
hard drive. During installation the MA311 card was recognized,
and proper entry was added into /etc/modules.conf, but I was not
prompted to configure it. Maybe because this computer has 100Base-T
NIC as well, and I was prompted to configure it. To get it working
I've edited just one file - /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1.
It was RedHat Enterprise Linux 3 Update 3, but I'm sure that it
will work under Fedora as well.
