I used to use a Linksys WPC11 card (I think that is what it was). Frankly I was underwhelmed by it. I think it was prism, but I'm not sure (I'm sure someone here will know about it). My current laptop has an Atheros wireless card built in to it and it's been working superbly pretty much since day 1. The drivers are proprietary, but available at no cost and quite stable and functional. I've not tried the sniffing etc, so I'm afraid I can't comment on that. Is there an easy way for me to test that? HTH, James. -- James Gregory <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
