No.  The 3CRWE62092A card isn't based on the lucent or prism2 host
interface, but instead an interface from a No Wires Necessary.  Docs
exist for this card (I have them for earlier versions), but the
interface is truely bizarre.

You PIO the packges through a 16550-like interface.  There is no DMA
and there's no provision for reading a packet at the same time you are
waiting for the outbound fifo to drain.

Things like WEP mode, or keys, etc are done by sending special
management packets to the card in a pseudo-snmp-like interface thing.

There is Linux driver.
