Dear SLUG,

I was wondering if the SLUG knew of any ISPs that support the use of a wireless broadband service for Linux, or if there were any drivers out there for the various USB, PCMCIA and ExpressCard devices for the wireless broadband services.

Whether there is support out there (for GNU/Linux) or not as yet, can anyone recommend a wireless broadband plan? I have a notebook, and would perfer to use an ExpressCard device (it has such a slot). I commute to Sydney daily, and live on the Central Coast. I update my cricket club website, so I'd like to use the time on the train to do this. Coverage is sketchy on the 'Coast with only Telstra giving a definite "yes" to coverage here, though some people on forums have commented they have detected "3G" signals in my area on networks such as Vodafone and Optus.

Regards,
Bryce Robilliard
