Can you reach the AP using any other system / OS? From the same
Yes, there are two access points nearby (one is WEP-protected, the

location as your linux box? What chipset is the card? What drivers is
ndiswrapper using?
I'm not sure about the chipset; neither the Linksys product page nor

As for the driver, I used the one on the CD which came with the card;
it was "lsbcmnds.inf".
