Atheros based cards work well. You'll need to install the madwifi-ng drivers for it. emerge madwifi-ng on Gentoo :-)
For a list of cards with this chipset see here http://customerproducts.atheros.com/customerproducts/
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.
I've got a WG511T which works perfectly, don't know about the 311, never sued one. Sorry.
ndiswrapper ?
Yes it was ndsiwrapper.
I've downloaded and compiled the madwifi-ng source and while everything seemed to go swimmingly depmod -a produces a 'Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.27/net/wlan.o'.
I've tried loading the modules, although I don't have a wireless card yet, and they fail to load possibly because of the above.
Why are you using such an ancient kernel? Try building against a 2.6 kernel.
