RE: Question on PCMCIA Cards....

Hi Franklin

 

I am also looking around to find appropriate pcmcia Wireless card for my
laptop. I need some advice on this subject, so I replied to your mail.

 

I want to buy a card that:

 

*	Supports for both windows and linux (mandatory)
*	the radio range should be the max. I can get
*	is supported by wireless tools (aircrack, airsnort, kismet, airopeek
on http://wardrive.net/wardriving/tools)

 

 

I checked hardware comparison on seattlewireless, reviews on cnet and
comparison of there long range wireless cards as follows:

Subject: Question on PCMCIA Cards....

 

Hi All;

 

I am thinking on getting the Airmagnet Wireless Spectrum Analyzer

from www.airmagnet.com or something similiar...

http://www.airmagnet.com/products/laptop.htm  is what I am looking at...

 

There is a PCMCIA card limits and I have a Buffalo G54 card

with an antenna jack.... I want to get an a/b/g card with an antenna

jack that is on the list of Supported cards...

http://www.airmagnet.com/products/cards.htm

 

What a/b/g supported card has an antenna jack ???

or b/g card if there is no a/b/g card that has an antenna jack ???

 

Or other than NetStumbler from www.netstumbler.com .. Is there a Windows

software package that will do what Airmagnet does ??? Shareware would be
nice

but not a requirement....

 

Thanks....

My 2 cents: Never get caught between an ISP and a telco in a pissing match!!
                   The customer looses every time!!!
