here comes:

cvs up is from Aug 20,

ndis0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> mtu 1500

ndis0: <NETGEAR WG311v2 802.11g Wireless PCI Adapter> mem 
0xef000000-0xef01ffff,0xef020000-0xef021fff irq 12 at device 18.0 on pci0
ndis0: [GIANT-LOCKED]
ndis0: NDIS API version: 5.0
ndis0: Ethernet address: 00:09:5b:8f:d7:df

everything fine here, now :

# ifconfig ndis0 ssid "MY SSID" mediaopt adhoc up
ifconfig: SIOCS80211: Invalid argument

and

# wicontrol ndis0
wicontrol: SIOCGWAVELAN: Invalid argument

of course I googled it, nothing really relevant. So my sysctl-technique 
is the only way I can get this card working, but maybe I'm missing 
something ?
