I'm guessing you're thinking about a laptop? If that's the case, the people smarter than me are gonna tell you to use card based on orinoco chipset (why do I always start singing "sail away, sail away,... when I hear that? it's a song.. "orinoco flow" sorry really bad joke.) Or Prism2 based chipset. I guess Cisco Aironet also, but I've also read people having more trouble with those. Prism2 and Orinoco cards support more advanced features like packet sniffing and stuff. Useful for 'wardriving'. I get by using my Broadcom 4309 via ndiswrapper. works with 54g on wep 128 at home; or I can easily connect to open networks where ever I find them. The broadcom came built into my laptop and it wasn't too hard to setup with ndiswrapper onceI understood what I was doing. Still, I would look for Prism2 or Orinoco based card. I don't know what brands use those, but i do know you'll need to check the specific model to be sure which it uses. wifi manufacturers do change chipsets sometimes. --- Chethiya K Ranaweera <ckranaweera@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > I want to go wireless with my FC4 system.
