Dear Steve,

I've also bought a SMC 2802W V2 card. This card is not
supported by the prism54.org project currently. I don't
know what will be the future but this card can works under
Linux with ndiswrapper project.

The idea is the following, using your Windows Driver under
Linux. The current version of the project support this
card and my card works.

You can find more information on the following web site:
http://ndiswrapper.sourceforge.net/

Regards,

Louis SWINNEN.
