Generally, there are no WiFi products supported by Solaris 10. The WiFi stack necessary for the support is part of OpenSolaris.

That said, I know of some companies that have WiFi stacks that operating on Solaris 8, 9, and 10. General Dynamics is one such company (I wrote that stack for them while at Tadpole.) There was another company that offered PCMCIA WiFi card drivers, but their name eludes me at the moment (I'm not sure they're still around in any event.)

I'm new to OpenSolaris but I was using a version of Solaris when I was

onto the Internet.  I have an old 2004 Motorala 802.11g Wireless PCI
Adapter Model WPC1810G and I can't find a device driver for my card.
When I looked at the HLC I could find my adapter or a wireless card
the was supported by OpenSolaris 10.  Does anyone happen to know a NIC
devices thats wireless and is supported by OpenSolaris 10.
i don't think you'll find a solaris driver for that card, but you can
try it with NDIS Wrapper and windows drivers. Please see:

There are also a lot of Wireless chipsets Supportet by OpenSolaris, see:
