Actually....


The Broadcom cards appear that they should work under Linux, ALTHOUGH the support is indirect.

Linuxant's DriverLoader claims to support this card by using their Windows driver wrapper. Check out:

Never tested it myself, but should be very interesting to see if it works and hear local feedback (perhaps at an rlug/rawug/rawalug/ralawug/NNCS meeting? :-)

This question would be better for [EMAIL PROTECTED], but since it also
touches on linux, I'll bite.

Take this card back to the store and get your money back. It has a
broadcomm chipset, which isn't supported under Linux. Complain to
Linksys for selling items that aren't supported under Linux.

Pick a card from this list instead:

I highly recommend the Senao cards. If you want to run b protocol, they
work really well.
