The only know working method appears to be a) boot windows 9x or later b) upgrade from there using the windows firmware upgrade utility from Netgear Which is all well and good if you have a copy of windows installed on the machine. I'm in the same situation, I could not get the [free]dos flash utility to upgrade the card either. The alternative appears to be boot some version of linux with the hostap drivers compiled to allow firmware upgrade. Well, I've not been able to find such an image that also includes a [dos,iso9660,ufs] filesystem I can access the rom images from at the same time. Anyone know of one? Thanks /RjL
