Wireless PCI Card

[Jeremy Baker]

If you are thinking of using the hostap driver, then I don't think any of the 
"g" products have supported chipsets.  I successfully implemented this with a 
DLink DWL-520 rev E1 which is an 802.11b pci card.  You need rev A, B, E1, or 
E if you want a prism chipset.  I don't know about the other brands.  I 
remember trying to find other models that have the prism chipset, but 
everyone is pushing the g products now, so it is tricky.
