Need help selecting Linux compatible WLAN PCI adapter
I need a Linux compatible PCI WLAN adapter... any recommendations? What I need most is range... throughput isn't important, since it's only for sharing broadband.

Anything worth the cost of a missile, which can be located on the battlefield, will be shot at with missiles. If the US military is involved, then things, which are not worth the cost if a missile will also be shot at with missiles. -Sea Skimmer

Thanks... they seem kind of expensive though (but acceptable if I look on Ebay, which I may have trouble convincing someone to buy off of). How does the D-link DWL-G520 compare in terms of signal strength? Would I be better off buying a cheap card and hooking up an antenna?phongn wrote:Cisco's Aironet series is the best of them all. I know their 340 and 350 will run under Linux (though you need the very latest drivers to use the 5.X firmware) but I'm not so sure about their A/B/G one.
