What PCMCIA WI-Fi card is recommended for versatility, reliability, and cost?
I want to use this to find Hot Spots, use the Internet, AND LEARN. Been a lurker too long and I want to participate. Are there some cards that have free software available to use for testing and exploring? Do some support API's so that I could write some of my own applets? Do some support downloaded updates? I live in Los Altos, but go to San Francisco (Marina area) on a regular basis and I go to Newport Beach now and then (like in 2 weeks). Do I need to support 802.11g and 802.11b? There seem to be a lot of choices and I'd like to hear what you knowledgeable folks think. I use to like Metracom/Ricochett. Are we heading that way with Wi-Fi?
