Ok, i'll try this one more time, this time in plain text and
subscribed.
Hi, everybody. I'm running fedora core 5, and soon, probably
6. I'm
looking for a reliable wireless pci nic at a good price. The
cheaper,
the better, but i'm willing to pay up a little if it works
perfectly,
with a minimum of installation hassle. I prefer that it have
excellent
native driver support, but i'll live with it if it works
with
ndiswrapper. For security, it should support wpa-personal
with tkip, at
a minimum. I emphasize: i want it to work reliably; i don't
want to have
to mess around with dropped connections, flaky
authentication, or
whacked-out, time-consuming configuration or
reconfiguration. I'm
looking for as close to that happy::it-just-works experience
as i can
get. You boot it up, and, once (painlessly) installed and
configured, it
works without having to think about it. Ever.
I have a couple of marvell chipset nics that used to work
halfway
decently with ndiswrapper, but something must've changed in
the wireless
extensions support, because now wpa-personal doesn't work
with the
wireless tools and/or ndiswrapper with these cards anymore
in fc5,
whether i use the rpm-packaged software or the
latest-and-greatest from
source. Transcieving in the clear is just not cool.
So... what make/model should i buy?
thanks in advance,
- gabriel
