It's Compusa 54 MB 802.11g wireless PCMCIA card.
Sorry, but your 802.11g card is most likely a doorstop.
I purchased a Compaq laptop and it came with one of the Broadcom chip sets. I had to use ndiswrapper and wpa-supplicant. I'm running it at 54M (which is most definitely 802.11G).
Most current cards will indeed work (maybe only sort of) with ndiswrapper. I've seen a recent report that, with one card, not everything worked.
I have built-in Atheros in my new laptop. I installed FC5 beta, decided Ireally don't want to muck around with drivers any more, and installed SUSE 10 where the wireless just works.
I'm about to try the Atheros route. I have a Netgear board and I'm ready to try it out. I also have a Belkin board which I thought I'd have to use ndiswrapper for but I just found a driver for it. We'll see.
Otherwise, I'd have had to hunt down the madwifi drivers, build them, maintain them myself (unless I can find a third-party site providing prebuilt drivers and I figure FC5 might be a little new).
So far I've tried ndis with a mini-pci (Broadcom) and 2 PCMCIA cards. All 3 worked. Of course it could be dumb luck but I'm hoping not. :-)
