Hi,

the license is bound to the MAC address of the wireless card, so if you 
want to try with another wireless card with DriverLoader, you will need 
another license. You can obtain a 30-day free trial license for each 
wireless card you own, to test them with DriverLoader before you obtain 
a permanent end-user license.

For the problem with the Linksys WPC11, did you managed to see your 
access point in the output of the 'iwlist scanning' command? Did you 
tried to connect to the other access point you were able to see just to 
make sure that DriverLoader is working fine?
