  That was one of the two cards I bought.  It was revision 3, I think,
and was not based on a Prism chip (earlier revisions were).

  The other was a Netgear WG311 v3.  Earlier versions are based on
Atheros, but v3 is based on a Marvell Libertas 88W8335.

  That is why I asked for specific revisions that are known to work.
