I'll do this tomorrow, but have taken the darn thing back. Netgear
realeased a lemon (From their webpage):
http://netgear.baynetworks.com/support/
We have discovered that the new FA510 that were
shipped were programmed incorrectly during the
manufacturing process. It has a wrong vendor
ID. When installing the card, the card
identifies itself incorrectly to Windows. As a
result, the NETGEAR driver provided will not
install. A new driver is provided as a
workaround. Please click here to download the
driver.
I needed to get some work done so just went and got the old 410 at
Fry's and went right to work no problems at all.
