Networking :: Getting wireless access on my old laptop

I've installed DSL on an old Toshiba laptop, works really well.

I have two possibilities when it comes to wireless, a Belkin USB Wireless adaptor - F5D6050, which I think uses the atmel chipset, but it may be prism2. The other option is an old PCMCIA wireless card, don't know what chipset it uses, doesn't even have a brand, is there any way to find the chipset?

I've tried ndiswrapper for the PCMCIA card, but it failed when I tried 'modprobe ndiswrapper'.

So, any ideas?

-----EDIT-----
I just checked the FCC ID on the PCMCIA card, it's made by TwinMOS Technologies Inc, the FCC ID is QS3WBDRP1 and here is the FCC report page thingy https://gullfoss2.fcc.gov/prod....out=500

Quick search shows that usb is an atmel - try out the atmel usb drivers in mydsl.

For your other card, you can look in System Stats.
