It doesn't give me much confidence when they list the Netgear WG311 which according to the Atheros compatability list now doesn't work because the chip has been changed.
Ahh That happens sometimes, it's a right pain too.
Netgear at least seem to now change the version number when they do that (in the past there have been plenty of D-Link and Netgear products that have changed chipset without there being any external indication)
In that case it is probably best to work backwards from the compatibility list and find a card where the current version is Atheros, the chances of finding a WG311 v2 when a v3 has been out for some time may be quite slim.
