OK, according to this page, my card is "v1" hardware:

	http://kbserver.netgear.com/products/WG111.asp

Which means I can use either this "initial driver release":

	http://kbserver.netgear.com/support_details.asp?dnldID=652

...or this v2.1 release:

	http://kbserver.netgear.com/support_details.asp?dnldID=843

I had been using the initial release version.  I just now switched to the 
v2.1 driver, and I see the same behavior, except that now the system also 
locks up anytime I "rmmod ndiswrapper".

When I rmmod it, the system does one of three different things:

1. a kernel panic (but the trace is different than when I do "iwpriv wlan0 
ndis_reset")

2. it just locks instantly without any output

3. it appears to *start* outputting some kernel panic info, but reboots 
before it's all printed.

Weird!  But in any case, both of the possible drivers for my card are giving 
extremely unstable behavior.
