Hi
    My webpage might help :

    http://www.eecs.umich.edu/~chhabra/netgearwireless.html

    My card is a Netgear MA401 which is also a Prism 2.5 card. You will 
have to either get rid of the orinoco_cs driver by recompiling your 
kernel or edit the corresponding config files (listed above) to choose 
the hostap_cs one instead.
