Greetings,
I am attempting to set up a network on which I can reimage a computer remotely. I will be using Ghost 9.0 and Symantic is saying that I will need DOS drivers for the Netgear Wireless NIC (WG311T). Is anyone aware of any Wireless NIC's that have DOS drivers or have an idea of how to get around having to use the DOS Drivers for restoring an image to a machine over the network?
Thanks,
Derekh87

I played around with this for awhile and had to go with a hard wired card. I couldn't find anything that showed me a way to connect wirelessly with DOS. It just doesn't support it. If on the other hand you find a way let me know! :)

I have been trying to find an answer to this for a couple years using CISCO, Dell TruMobile, and Linksys cards and nothing works. I have ghost 8.0 corporate edition at work and I have to plug my laptops wired to be ghosted. If you or anyone finds an answer that would be great.

You will need a Cisco Aironet card (or another card with a DOS packet driver).
You will probably want a DHCP server or a wattcp.cfg file.
You will also need to be using GHOST MultiCast.
Load up the Cisco packet driver with the options shown in the following web site:

Run Ghost and select MultiCasting
Type your session name and it should connect.
Proceed with Ghosting as usual.

I have my Dell Latitude laptops using CISCO Aironet 340 and 350 series cards. I will try that link you sent and if that works I will be forever grateful.
