I've only used Lucent (Orinoco) or Cisco Aironet cards but both work
well. I don't use an AP. Instead, I use a second wireless card with an
external antenna on one of my servers and connect to it. I'm
masquerading the entire network and I didn't see any point in paying 2-3
times the price for an AP when I can do the same thing with a second
nic.
