'''Q:''' What is the best card? [[BR]] '''A:''' This is a highly subjective question. In my opinion the best all around wireless card is a Lucent/Orinoco Silver or a Gold card. They have good OS support, external antenna jacks, and have one of the highest recive sensitivity on the market. If you are looking to make a HostAp machine, you might want to look into the Zcomax prism2 cards or the Senao 200mW cards. '''Q:''' I'd like to try doing ___________ with 802.11b. Will it work? [[BR]] '''A:''' Dunno, maybe. Wireless networking depends on so many different factors that it's impossible to say for sure. Try it and let us know. |
