Did you get drivers from Linksys?.... I had trouble using any Linksys drivers... I have a WPC54G ver. 1.2 card w/ a Broadcom 4306 chip... is you card the same? if it is check my other post it may help....

the HP driver is an older driver but it's the only one I found that I could get to work w/ either my internal wifi or my WPC54G card..

Hope it helps....

If you have trouble finding the driver let me know...
