IC. Any recommendations for a good replacement wireless card? I've
read the list on the FAQ, but my experience in wireless cards is
(besides the ASUS card) practically nil.
Should I just hang on to the ASUS and see what happens with
subsequent snapshots?
Of course, I could just do both....
ral(4) is usually a good recommendation, they're cheap and work well.
Thanks, I'll look into that. The command from up-on-high (my wife)
is that she have wireless. She doesn't much care how it's done.
I'll hang on to the ASUS for now. If a Dev needs an ASUS I'll be
happy to donate it to the cause. Drop me a line and I'll try to
send it out as soon as I possibly can. :-)
What do you want to do with the wireless? Is this for acting as an
access point? (in this case I would be looking at athn(4) devices) or
just for connecting to an existing wireless network? (in which case
you are likely to have good luck by just picking up a random cheap
USB device).
It would act as an access point. We have several wireless devices
(ie. my wife's laptop) and I want to implement a wireless network
for these devices.
