Depends on your intent. Any prism2-based card is well supported. Less well supported are atmel-based cards. I have several, all of which work fine. My favorite is a Zoomair card. I use the hostap driver with it (allows it to act as a regular client for a wlan network OR act as an access point AND it supports monitor mode for wlan sniffing). Orinoco cards are also reasonably well supported (I also have an Orinoco Gold). There are a number of others but since I'm happy with my current cards I haven't looked into it much more of late. praedor - -- Conservatives of all times are adventitious liars. - - Friedrich Nietzsche. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE+KyI51i/6R1B/Yh0RAowVAKCYU2AEv4QVS7/KmLcBT4JCYmFvJACZAcsx hNbkId/l8p8DdRId9ORP39k= =LS9s -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
