as long as you have specific requirements, of the wlan, you have to do some homework some things ndis wrapper does not support, iircc .. - it cannot be an "AP", because MS is not "allowed" by their buddies that do make consumer ap - it does not(?) support monitor mode for sniffing some drivers does NOT support wpa - if you do want wpa, you have to find a madwifi or hostap based chipset if you want to wireless sniff traffic, you need to fnd one that supports "monitor" mode - madwifi drivers works if you want to run in adhoc mode .. - you should make up your mind, if you're an AP or client - madwifi does NOT support adhoc mode - which drivers supports which wifi cards http://www.linux-wireless.org/Wireless/Drivers/ ( see the list of hw under each driver ) http://madwifi.net/ c ya alvin -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
