[ale] SMC2402W

FWIW, I have been using a Netgear WG511 PC card with joy.  I've had it
for a few months now.  It Just Works if you follow the gospel on
www.prism54.org.  I can't recall if you need to select appropriate
kernel support or not.

The trickiest part is getting the on-disk firmware in place.
