Lost of card that you can get anywhere off the shelf these days use
RaLink chips, and I had relative success getting such to work with the
rt2x00 driver in the latest versions of Ubuntu and OpenSuSE and to a
minor degree with Fedora.
Also I could get some Broadcom based cards to work with the open source
driver and binary firmware from the windows driver, but its a bit more
touch and go as the stable open source driver currently doesn't support
firmware release 5 which newer chips require.
Anyway, my point is that you can have wireless access these days on a
lot of cards with open source drivers - you need not limit yourself to
madwifi.

Hello List,
As the subject say, I'm looking for a good PCI 802.11g card that will
be supported by madwifi.
However (and that's my main problem), the card must work in a computer
located inside a Mamad, where the router is located only 8 to 10
meeters in a different room from that computer.
Is it possible to find such card without using MIMO for example ?
Does anyone know of a good card for that task that will work under linux ?
My router is (maybe it will help to find an answer) Linksys WRT54GL
with Linksys latest patches.
Thank you for any help in this matter
