I could not find anything regarding $SUBJECT.
Next week I will be getting the Netgear WG602 (Access point),
WG511 (PCMCIA card) and WG311 (PCI card), all of which are
54 Mbs 802.11g compliant.
I will be able to test the PCI card on both 2.4 and 2.6.
The PCMCIA card only under 2.4
(My old (1999) via-based laptop doesn't like 2.6 but that's another
story)

The only support that I am aware of is for the Atheros a, a/b, and a/b/g
chipsets. Atheros has released a binary only driver (still very beta) -
for more info see:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/madwifi
Also, there is an effort to create an opensource driver for this
hardware at:
http://team.vantronix.net/ar5k/
This is driver is in its very early stages, only useful for serious
developers.
I am not aware of any drivers or efforts involving the Broadcom b/g
chipset, which seems to be the dominant chipset for b/g products.
(Although I don't know what radio the products you mentioned are based on.)

Well, the PCI card has the Atheros chip and the
PCMCIA, the Intersil Prism GT chip.

Atheros Drivers: http://sourceforge.net/projects/madwifi
Intersil Prism GT: I'm not aware on the status of these. Eventually

You must realize that the computer has it in for you. The irrefutable
proof of this is that the computer always does what you tell it to do.
