[TCLUG] quick recommendations on wireless...

Fri Jan 30 12:46:43 CST 2004

I've been using a PCMCIA Netgear MA401 Rev. D card. It's been working
with NetBSD 1.6.1, SUSE 8.2, SUSE 9 and Slackware 9.x.

I've tried the USB Linksys 3.0 and D-Link cards with really no luck.
Granted I did not spend an extraordinary amount of time looking for
drivers and such.  I have an older USB Linksys WPC 1.1 card that did
work with SUSE 9.  I think if you stay away from any PCMCIA 802.11b+ and
802.11g cards you should be safe.  

Thanks,
Andrew

Wife was just put on bed rest for the last few months of her pregnancy -

and I figure it's a good time to make a push for wireless AP and a 
PCMCIA card.

I don't have much time to research and I'll need to buy the stuff from a

local merchant (best buy, circuit city, compUSA (if I must...), 
mircocenter...)

Have had bad experience with Linksys and would like to stay around $50 
or so...  anyone know of any good deals around ?- must work with Linux 
and win2k
