[driverloader] Broadcom (Belkin 54g) AMD64

Hi,

we can see the following line in your 'dmesg' :

---
driverloader: stack=8192/88/0 REGPARM
---

it means that the DriverLoader module was correctly compiled and 
inserted into the kernel. However, it seems that the DriverLoader module 
does not attempt to load a Windows XP driver.

Please make sure that you have uploaded the right Windows XP driver to 
the Web Configurator at http://127.0.0.1:18020. The right Windows XP 
driver for your wireless card is probably :

http://ftp.us.dell.com/network/R74092us.EXE

Under Linux, you can use the 'unzip' command on the .EXE file to extract 
the Windows driver. The required .INF file will be named 
'AR/bcmwl5a.inf' inside the .EXE file.

If you require more assistance, while the Windows XP driver is 
installed, please send at support at linuxant.com the output of 'dumpdiag'. 
Type the following in a root shell:

---
dldrconfig --dumpdiag
---

Just send us the generated file located in /tmp 
('driverloaderdiag.txt'). It'll help us solve the problem.

Regards,
