After checking on the NDISWrapper supported list, i am trying to install my Netgear MA111v2 USB adapter which has a SIS162u chipset.

Now, i have tried both the Netgear driver (from website, there is one version only) and the sis162u driver (from website).

With both drivers, this is the behaviour i get:

- ndiswrapper loads fine, card is recognized and no errors
- i can browse APs with
Code:
iwlist scanning

- i can bring up my interface with
Code:
ifconfig wlan0 up

- i can obtain an IP address via DHCP
Code:
dhcpcd wlan0

- BUT when i try to ping any host (even 192.168.1.1) nothing happens.

From dmesg i can then see a quite ugly kernel stack dump and sooner or later my box will freeze, and i have to do a hard reboot.

Did anybody had luck with this card? On the mdiswrapper wiki there are two success stories! Can you please point me where i can download working windows drivers?

Oh, ndiswrapper i tried is both version 1.33 and 1.35.
