I'm afraid that I can't provide any info concerning those card manufacturers. I have learned, though, that most any card with a Prism2/3 chipset (anything "Intersil", for example) can be made to work. My knowledge is strictly 802.11b, though.
Right now, I'm interested in the AP problem, and I'm trying to get Dlink's DWL-520revE.1 to work for this purpose. It should work with the HostAP drivers, which are explained pretty well here: http://home.columbus.rr.com/andrewbarr/dwl520e1.html ...even though the page is not really totally supported anymore. There is a HostAP mailing list at: http://sisyphus.iocaine.com/pipermail/hostap/ which is also useful. This HostAP driver, together with the wireless-tools package, seems to be the answer for Prism2 PCI cards. However, I'm a little stymied, since nothing seems to work out-of-the-box, and I'm a beginner at compilation/building binaries. I currently have a question over at the leaf-devel list for that purpose. Hope I've given you something to start with. ----- Hopefully someone else, then, can answer this question: is there a PCI 802.11b solution that seems to work with Bering-uClibc2.x as packaged? Perhaps with wlan-ng? Because I'm about at my wits' end on this one. Thanks. -joe. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sergio D.
