Unfortunately, I can't test any of this since I'm running a Debian server.

It seems you're in luck to some degree. I downloaded these files and  
examined the links within, but they simply point back to the AVM site  
that still offers the old driver versions. I guess your versions are a  
hack.

The Cologne cards aren't expensive either: EUR 29,- to EUR 35,- in the  
Netherlands. I got one for only EUR 10,- recently. But even if the  
Cologne cards are more expensive than the Fritz! cards, and even if I  
could get the Fritz! cards to work on Debian again, it does indeed  
sound like the Cologne cards a lot easier to configure and maintain.
