==NEXXT Wireless PCI Adapter, Model NW122NXT12==
* Chipset: RTL-8185 IEEE 802.11a/b/g Wireless LAN Controller (rev 20)
* pciid: 10ec:8185
* Driver: Driver came with the CD.

==Info:==
I use Ubuntu Karmic 9.10 (the 64bit version). I downloaded the ndiswrapper packages from the repos and launched the ndisgtk app. I couldn't put the driver to work with this app since it just died when it loaded a driver. So I did it on a terminal with the "-i option" to install and the "-l option" to verify. After that I just rebooted and it was working.

I also attach the output of several information commands.
