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.
