It depend what you want to do with the card?, IIRC secondary firmware 1.8.4 / primary 1.1.1 doesn't support hostap mode... IIRC you'll have to reflash it with secondary 1.7.4 ~ 1.4.9 (I forget which is best) to get hostap mode working. I have all the firmware, utilites, and docs if you need them. Secondary firmware 1.7.4 and up supports WPA and 1.3.7 and up supports Prism 3 chipsets. I forget which firmwares supports 802.11d but I know 1.8.4 does. I think I have the secondary firmware changelog up to 1.4.9, primary firmware changelog up to 1.1.0 and a 2003 version of the driver programmers manual.
