Hi all. I would like to buy a wireless PCMCIA card to try out monitor mode 
and other things. D-Link's DL-630 cards were going for $14.99 last weekend.

Does anyone have better recommendations or suggest a site where they have 
reviews? I can't seem to find any. Thanks.

PS: Sean, I'm using my (free) D-Link USB wireless adapter for the "basura" 
Pentium 500MHz desktop that I picked up from the to-be-trashed-later section 
in my office a few months ago.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think the D-Link cards might be Broadcom
based, which would eliminate the reason for getting one in the first
place. Don't quote me on this though.
