I've had great results with Orinoco, Avaya, and Proxim. They're all the
same card, basically. Proxim bought Orinoco. But don't get the client
PC card, get the classic. I must have about a dozen working in
notebooks and in desktops with the PCI/PCMCIA bridge cards. They work
in peer mode or in managed mode connecting to an access point (of which
I have several).
One note: you _can_ use the Orinoco USB client, but support is not yet
native to the kernel, so you have to d/l, compile, and install the
drivers. I have a couple of these working, but unless you're
comfortable doing this, stay away from the USB until it's added to the
kernel (still not available in 2.6.0-test9).
