That card has two chipset revisions depending on the label (or mac address), as can seen on the manufacturer's website. http://www.dlink.com/products/support.asp?pid=308&sec=0#drivers Revision A is Marvell based and AFAIK not supported under Linux, Revision B ia Atheros based and should work with the madwifi drivers, although I have no experience with them. All these investigations could be done by yourself, just be looking into the windows drivers, or through the other information that can be found online. Also Linux wireless cards are not very well supported by the manufacturers, so that one must choose very well a card before buying, or trying to find acceptable refund policies to return the card if needed. And for providing SoftAP-like services, only some Prism based cards do the job properly (i know that there are others as well). > > > Also, from what I've read, ndiswrapper needs PERL, which is way too > > big to fit on a floppy based router. > I download additional packages by network after system start. > It's solve floppy space trouble. > > I use Berinng-1.2 with kernel 2.4.20 You will find little to no success with that Bering version if you still want to make that d-link card work.
