Hi,
I am getting very insecure about the suported chipset by the wi driver.
I was planning to setup a AP (access point) but till now i cant get my
hands on a working wireless card that is supported. I even though that
once i was lucky that i found a Linksys wmp11 but also linksys dont use
the prism chip anymore.
My general questions are:
- What card is still supported by wi?
- is there a good way to make a non suported card work anyway?
Grt,
Tibart
You could go on e-bay and get an older card. I got a Linksys wpc11 ver.3
for $20. It works in AP mode, I just had to load the right firmware. You
could also try a Wireless user group in your area. Someone might trade a
card you already have for the card you need.
