Trying to get OS X 10.4.1 to recognize the netgear wireless adapter. I have the netgear installed but my MAC won't recognize it? Is there a driver or something that I am missing?

I am stuck with the only option of going wireless the apple way is by spending 85 English pounds on and airport card (the first generation) which Apple have now stopped making. I managed to get hold of a FREE Netgear Wireless USB adaptor, so decided to give that a try.
I had no success using the method listed on the site:, and so searched around for another option. And there are a few sites out there that quote the above site as an option. I gave up, but found this site: This WORKED! Although it doesn't have an application with it to configure it, all configuration is done though the Networks Pane of System Prefs, so there is no way of knowing signal strength, or to configure encryption. If anyone else has had success with this, and figured a way of encryption and checking signal strength please let me know.
