    You'll find Jean Tourrilhes page on the Orinoco driver much more
     useful:
     http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Jean_Tourrilhes/Linux/Orinoco.html

    This page unfortunately points back to your page for the source of the
    driver. I have tried to build the latest kernels that have this driver,
    but make modules and make modules_install don't seem to actually do anything
    (Lots of "Nothing to be done" appear)

    I see that the Linux wireless project now supports the DLink 650, has
    anyone gotten this working with a 713P gateway?
