Can someone recommend a wireless PCI card that does not need the

with an error), a Broadcom compact PCI that works with NDIS and 2
PCMCIA that need to use NDIS.



atheros and it's madwifi driver.


Thanks






Understand that that means "any wireless PCI card that is built with an Atheros chipset." Always look at the technical specs of any peripheral card you buy. Netgear springs to mind--so long as they don't change chipsets.


I would chip in for Ralink RT2500 chipset cards.  The current driver
is rt2500 and based around driver code released by Ralink. The rt2x00
experimental driver will be in the kernel eventually.  While rt2500
supposedly doesn't support 4k stacks my EDIMax card is running fine on
FC3/2.6.12-1.1378 (better than the official driver on WinMe in fact -
WPA issues).
