G cards was RE: wireless laptop card advice
My main problem with 802.11g is there are no good high-power PCMCIA cards with an aerial socket. Anyone can prove me wrong? Most of the miniPCI cards have an aerial socket. -Original Message- From: Hadley Rich [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, 14 September 2005 6:15 p.m. To: linux-users@it.canterbury.ac.nz Subject: Re: wireless laptop card advice For a cheap high power (longer range) 802.11b card I'd recommend the SMC SMC2532W-B it's a 200mw card with external antenna connectors based on the Prism chipset, similar to the popular Senao cards.

Senao do some 200mW g cards[1] but none of them have external aerial connectors and I haven't seen any available in NZ. My dream card at the moment would be a 200mW g card with a built in antenna and external connector(s) much like the SMC b card I have now except g [1]http://www.senao.com/english/product/product_wireless01_outdoor.asp?pgtl=Wirelesstp1id=02tp2id=07 hads -- It's a classic Pinzer maneuver; it can't fail against a bunch of ten-year-olds! -- Herman in Bart the General

There exist 400 mW mini PCI cards - maybe a good time to get a laptop upgrade. Acer sempron (god thats a dodgy name) for $1099 with a $100 rebate. Sub-$1k notebook. -Original Message- From: Hadley Rich [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, 15 September 2005 1:12 p.m. To: linux-users@it.canterbury.ac.nz Subject: Re: G cards was RE: wireless laptop card advice On Thu, 15 Sep 2005 11:34, Craig FALCONER wrote: My main problem with 802.11g is there are no good high-power PCMCIA cards with an aerial socket.
