Re: Help! PCMCIA Wifi card freezes system
I don't know if it works on windows - my only laptop runs debian exclusively.
I will try the card on a friend's laptop.
Even if this is a hardware problem, is there any reason it should freeze the kernel?
Thanks,
James Utter

Hm, had same symptoms with my wg511t too. Does the system freeze if you
use Windows? Or annother system (a different laptop)? If yes, ask
Netgear for a new one. I got one (even if I thought I was out of
warranty).
