I bought a Netgear WG511 wireless pccard. Now I'd like to get it
working... =)

As far as I've understood, it's the 'prism54' kernel module.
I installed PCMCIAUtils (created a recipe), which installed some udev
rules...
But also, one needs the firmware. Now, since we're using udev, it's udev
that should handle the firmware loading... How do I do that?
I have a udev rule like this:

ACTION=="add", SUBSYSTEM=="firmware", ENV{FIRMWARE}="*", \
        RUN+="/sbin/firmware_helper"

And I tried downloading lots of versions of firmware into /lib/firmware:
16/10 17:33 rw-r--r--    93996 1.0.4.3.arm
16/10 17:33 rw-r--r--   112128 1.1.0.0.arm
16/10 17:26 rw-r--r--    29024 2.7.0.0.arm
16/10 17:26 rw-r--r--    30056 gw3887
16/10 17:26 rw-r--r--    30176 isl3886_usb

But nothing happens, the lights on the card stays off...
It's listed in lspci, and the prism54 module is loaded.
Doing ifconfig eth1 up just gives me 'no such device'.

Has anyone of you used this card? Or had similar problems?
