All new 22Mbit-capable cards use the Texas Instruments ACX-100 chipset. D-Link TechSupport writes, that they are working on drivers for it, but no release date is given. Some weeks ago I purchased a Netgear MA401 (because it's cheap :), which has a Prism chipset and works well. Regards, Ansgar Hellwig
