The Netgear FA511 is a Cardbus 10/100 card for a wired network. It's
not a wireless adapter and so the SSID settings, WEP key, etc. don't
apply for this card.
I have the FA511 working well in a Toshiba Portege 7200 series. It
uses the tulip_cb module. IIRC, I had to set
PC Card Controller Mode = CardBus/16-bit
in my Toshiba BIOS before it would function properly.
