I've had a couple of the WG511, I presume they are V1, since they don't say
v2. These are very good cards, and are often very cheap on Amazon. I
bought the first because it was only $19 after rebates. I bought the
second after I found out how good the first was. I think it is a bit
better than an Orinoco Silver Classic.

Netgear uses their own FCC-ID range, so it's difficult to pinpoint the
original manufacturer, but could you post the new FCCID?

Mine is FCC ID PY3WG511-F. I identified it as an Intersil chipset.
