So does the driver in the link below work with any wireless card? I mean is
is generic? I have 2 802.11b wireless cards that I've used in my PC
laptops, and one 802.11g that I'd really like to be able to use.

It works on some cards and not others. It also works for some people and not others, even with the same cards. I tried it with a Proxim Harmony card and couldn't get it to work, even with multiple re-installs of the software (that's one of the trouble shooting tips). The card would work with the IOxperts driver, but I didn't know if it was worth another $20 to me. I have also used the sourceforge driver with a WaveLAN Gold card in my Titanium, it works fine when I'm out of Airport range, which is only about 30 feet. Basically, you can install either driver and try them out. The IOxperts one will work for 30 minutes at a time, so you can see if that's a possible solution for you.
