Question Wireless: NetGear WG511

Hi folks
Like almost everybody in this forum, I sweat trying to install a wireless card on Fedora Core.
I'd appriciate some help.
So, here it is:
FC6 working on Lenovo T60p.
Wireless card PCMCIA Netgear wg511.
FC6 recognizes the card, as follows:
/sbin/lspci
16:00.0 Network controller: Intersil Corporation ISL3890 [Prism GT/Prism Duette]/ISL3886 [Prism Javelin/Prism Xbow] (rev 01)

Now, ndiswrapper -l
installed drivers:
2802w driver installed, hardware (1260:3890) present (alternate driver: prism54)
netwg511 invalid driver!

modprobe ndiswrapper
FATAL: Module ndiswrapper not found.

iwconfig
lo no wireless extensions.

eth0 no wireless extensions.

sit0 no wireless extensions.

eth1 NOT READY! ESSID:off/any
Mode:Managed Channel:0 Access Point: Not-Associated
Tx-Power=31 dBm Sensitivity=0/200
Retry min limit:0 RTS thr=0 B Fragment thr=0 B
Encryption key:off
Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0
Rx invalid nwid:0 Rx invalid crypt:0 Rx invalid frag:0
Tx excessive retries:0 Invalid misc:0 Missed beacon:0

I guess I need to find some proper window-drivers and install them.
Could anybody suggest how to continue?

Thanks,
Eran
