I should be getting that turbo speedup...
Isn't the DWL-G520 using the Atheros chipset? If so, you'd want the Madwifi drivers (madwifi.sf.net).
That's the maddening thing about a lot of these wifi adapter manufacturers, even a slight model change can mean a major chipset difference. The DWL-G520+ is totally different from the DWL-G520!
For the Linksys WMP54G, according to http://ralink.rapla.net and other pages I've visited, even different revisions of the exact same board model have totally different chipsets (4 or 5 different ones in fact!!).
Needless to say, deciding on which 11g card to get is no picnic if you're interested in using it under Linux as well.
I checked out a Linksys WRT54G broadband router the other day. It's
good enough for indoor usage (although it's a bit disappointing when
placed outdoors... ).
This is news. I thought you got a lot better range with WiFi when you don't have any obstacles.

the WAP54G AP) is that they run Linux (MIPS port) inside - and are really hackable.
Got URLs to any nice sites that talk about this?
