New WIFI adapter NETGEAR wg311v3

I've setup a Ubuntu PC for my 5 year old daughter. She want's to play games aso.
But because I don't wanna have cables lying around, and don't wanna drag another cable from the cellar to the first floor, I decided to buy a wireless pci card.

Fine I bought the cheapest I could possibly find in one of those electronic retail stores here in DK.

A 'NETGEAR' 'WG311v3' it was, and what a mess I ended up having. Linux or Ubuntu is not mature when it comes to WIFI and encryption, but kubuntu seems a lot better at this point. For Ubuntu you'll have to go through a number of howtos aso., but it'll still be messy.

First I had to use ndiswrapper, which is apparently a tool to wrap the windows drivers to be used within Linux (ubuntu).

~$sudo ndiswrapper -i $SOMEDRIVER$.INF

Then I had to remove all encryption from my wireless router, to test that I got a connection.
After that I fumbled with kwlan and wpa_supplicant, which should make me able to have wep encryption on my connection, I abandoned kwlan, and rushed back to networkmanager instead.

This last step was very time consuming, because I'm no nux-wizz, and I'm not familiar with starting up 'services' from boot. But in the end I found that command that did the trick :)

~$sudo ndiswrapper -m

Makes ndiswrapper start every boot.
