I received a Cisco Aironet 802.11a/b/g AIR-CB21AG-A-K9 in the mail
today and so far it works with my 802.11b hostap box if I lock it into
mode 11b. I've got another a/b/g card coming tomorrow so I'll be able
to test 802.11a this weekend. Even if I don't get 802.11a working
with it this card works much better than the Netgear MA401 card I had
in this laptop. I'm consistently connecting at DS11 and have great
range.
