I have a Netgear WG511T (Atheros-based 802.11g) running under Sun Java
Desktop (aka Suse 8.1).  Set up was a little funky (Suse saw it as
eth-pcmcia-0 but YaST would not configure it; had to do it manually) but
works great.  I also have the Netgear WGT624 V2 wireless router. 
Browser-based setup works fine with Mozilla and  Konqueror.
