First make sure nothing else is competing for the wireless card. Then update the card with the latest firmware from the manufacturer, and finally check the drivers.
Ok, I got NS working (silly problem), but this gave me another problem. Now I can use NS with no problem at all (using NDIS 5.1 in the device-list instead of Atmel), but the configuration utility provided by 3Com claims NDIS is not installed and I cannot configure my card :/
Still looking into firmware upgrades, I'll edit this post when I know more...

Edit: Found no trace of firmware at 3Com. Reinstalled the wireless NIC and things seem to go along smoothly now. I can use both NS and the WLAN config. Though I think I've found what looks like it could be a bug or a compatibility issue: Unless I reinsert my NIC after starting NS, the device menu reports No suitable devices found, altough scanning works flawlessly by just pressing the "play" button.
In any event, you're doing great marius, I'm really happy to get NS running on my comp at all
