I downloaded a copy of Ubuntu 7.4 today , The install was a breeze and everything except the WiFi got configured out of the box. all I had to do to install WiFi was to install the windows drivers using the windows wireless drivers application and everything works fine.

Fonera router hack-update
After upgrading my Fon router successfully to DD-WRT I have been experiencing frequent disconnects, every few hours The WiFi connection drops for a few seconds and connects back . Some posts on the DD-WRT forum point to overheating of the router as the cause for this issue. A few people have gone so far as to drill holes and attach cooling fans to remedy the situation. I have switched back to my old router until I find a better solution (other then drilling holes in the cabinet) to this problem.
If you have a Fon router be advised that it might heat up excessively and give poor performance if placed in a poorly ventilated spot.
