I played a little with ndiswrapper on my intel 2200BG. I found that while ndiswrapper loaded properly I still had some issues with it, so I switched to Linuxant's driverloader.
However I remembered from the documentation I read that there might be a delay between entering the commands on the commands being accepted by the wlan card. In addition I found that the order in which I entered iwcondifg commands mattered (I _have_ to enter key before essid - really strange).
Yes, the order apparently matters - as the FAQ on the ndiswrapper project page says. Anyway, as I need wlan functionality with this laptop urgently, for traveling, and can't afford to lose time, I now had to reinstall windows 2000, which in a rather unfortunate way ends my experiments with this particular card.
