Me any mine have been having good luck with Atheros chipsets of late. OfficeDepot (USA) has their own brand (of which I don't recall as my laptop is at home, but starts with an "A"), PCMICA card was $35. Have had dhcp problems with the 'wi0' chipset when signal is poor (drops on/off frequently). Earlier posts led to a suspicion that replacing dhclient with ?dhcp3? from ports might solve the problem but was never tested. The wi0 chipsets have definitely been around the longest, and used to give the most detailed signal strength info with netstumbler on win2k. I also saw some techie site had Atheros cards with big amplifiers on them - up to 400mW, but obviously, those were more in the $75 range than $35.
