This is the beginnings of a FrequentlyAskedQuestions list for the IrcChannel (#wireless on the Open Projects Network).

Q: Will my D-link DWL-650+ work in Linux or *BSD? BR A: No. They use a currently unsupported Ti chipset. Please tell D-link that Linux support would be greatly appreciated.

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.
