Netinstall via Wireless Card

I'm trying to put Arch Linux onto my computer's laptop using a Netgear WG511T wireless card for installation.  However, the wireless card is apparently not recognized (even though it should be supported natively), so it fails when I try to use DHCP polling.  Is there any way I can get the netinstall CD to recognize the wireless card?

What output do you get when you type iwconfig? Have you done "ifconfig eth0 up"? (replace eth0 with your interface)

Never mind, I figured it out.
