Thanks everyone for their suggestions. I went to a few stores in the area. The only WPC11 cards i could find were v4. I didn't get one, but I did try to compile the driver under 2.6.3. No go there. I didn't put much time into it, but the compile crapped out pretty nicely.
All I could find of the Belkin cards mentioned were v2101. I found some info about the v2X cards having problems with Linux as well, so I didn't get one of those either. I dugout an old wired card and am living tethered while I do some research. It seems a lot of the card vendors have been switching chipsets. My old card was a Cisco Aironet 340. Good card. It was a parting gift from my last dot bomb. A piece of advise. Don't leave a wireless card poking out the side of your laptop when you put the laptop into your bag. Sometimes the bag gets hit and the card gets broke. Just an FYI from the voice of experience. Ken On Thu, 2004-02-26 at 11:55, Frye, Matthew wrote: > Sure it does.
