I have a NetGear MA521 wireless PC card that dapper does not configure on install. The card is in a Dell Inspirion 7000. The same equipment works with Win 2K so I know the hardware is good. The MAC address is showing up as 00:00:00:00:00 in the gnome network applet. The output from lspci, ifconfig, and iwconfig is below. Let me know if you need anything else.
