If you're RH8, go into Network settings and you can choose Add to add a wireless device. Good luck. There's support for all kinda cards but you'll just have to see. There's alot of wireless support in RH8, but it's still a bit behind the curve from what I can tell. I'm not sure if NetGear is in there or not but there's a long list.
