We have been using the Cisco Aironet a/b/g Cardbus Adapter (p/n
AIR-CB21AG-A-K9) on our laptop running the AirMagnet suite for almost a
year. The data is solid, consistent, and provides a realistic
representation of the performance an end user would experience.

I've been evaluating the AirMagnet Laptop Analyzer with an
Orinoco (Proxim) Gold A/B/G card, but I notice the Orinoco reports
weaker signals than the Broadcoms we use campus-wide (in Gateway 405
laptops). The Orinioco is a PC Card, while the Broadcom is mini-PCI, so
I suppose there's a difference in the antenna.
Obviously, we want our analyzer to give an accurate
representation of what our normal wireless clients see, especially for
site surveys.
Can anyone recommend a wireless A/B/G PC Card for use with
AirMagnet Laptop Analyzer (and AirMagnet surveyor)?
Any suggestions are appreciated!
