Netg.MA101b user feedback

Hi at76c503a-developers!

We have got several computers at home and two of those devices:
  0864:4102 Netgear, Inc. MA101 802.11b Adapter
I have been using the atmelwlandriver[1] on Debian for a long time. Now
I have to get the wlan adapter running on a new Ubuntu installation. So
I took a look at your project.

Comparison of at76c503a and atmelwlandriver from my point of view:
 * atmelwlandriver is hard to set up (can cause frustration)
 * at76c503a is easy to set up (tremendously easy!)
 * atmelwlandriver works flawless, does scanning, never crashes
 * at76c503a (when used out-of-the-box) hardly holds contact to the
   access point, does not do scanning and "kills" kernel on device
   removal

Sadly I have to stay with the patched atmelwlandriver for now. I have
never done driver development so far, but I can help you by testing.
