Here is a link to a forum discussion about this card: http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12351

Netgear WG111
Configuring the WG111 to use WPA-PSK on a wireless network
This card works very well in Knoppix 3.9 using ndiswrapper, but is as of yet untested in other versions of Knoppix (to my knowledge).
- Commands:
Assuming that the drivers are on the cd in /dev/cdrom, then
mount /dev/cdrom/ /mnt/cdrom/
Find ndiswrapper configuration under Knoppix->Network/Internet and select netwg111.inf from /mnt/cdrom. After that finishes, create the configuration file that you will need shortly using the following command:
wpa_passphrase MySSIDHere MyPassphraseHere > /home/knoppix/wpa_supplicant.conf
Now, use your favorite text editor (if you don't have one, try Kate under the menu item Editors) and edit the /home/knoppix/wpa_supplicant.conf you just created (see sample below).
With that completed, run the following command. Warning: As it is, the command will monopolize your current command window with potentially useful debugging output, including your encryption key; add -B if you would rather run it in the background (useful when you know it works already), remove -K to hide your key.
sudo wpa_supplicant -ddKt -i wlan0 -c /home/knoppix/wpa_supplicant.conf -Dndiswrapper
The following grabs an IP address if you use DHCP from your router.
sudo pump -i wlan0
And finally, tell Knoppix where to go to find the internet.
sudo route add default gw <Gateway/Router IP address here>
- wpa_supplicant.conf
Note: the bold lines were added in the editing steps for my Linksys WRT54G Router to accept the card. See the Useful Links at the end for a full explanation of all options that can be put in here.
