  Setting Up an 802.11b Home Wireless Network

In my network I have Belkin DSL Wireless/Wired Router and Hub F5D6230g3 and Belkin PCMCIA 802.11b card F5D6020 ver.2 serving for Linux Mandrake 9.1
Setting up the router was a breeze, but because Atmel chipset from PCMCIA card were not supported with Mandrake, I had to compile it myself. Once I learned that I have to install kernel source rpm i have finished the whole thing in 5 minutes.
It is such a pity that Belkin do not say a word anywhere about its product compartibility with Linux! Atmel has a great mailing list where the issues with installation of the drivers are discussed.
