I'm looking for a pcmcia wifi adapter for my laptop, and wondered what

What cardbus adapters do people use, and anyone know if the Linksys
adapter I mentioned is compatible with Debian?

Cheers,

Hi Ben,

I am using the Netgear WG511T PCMCIA card with atheros chipset.
It's really running fine even with the wpasupplicant package for wpa PSK encryption. But it is not running of the box with debian. You have to get the madwifi source and compile your own module (described on http://www.marlow.dk/site.php/tech/madwifi ).
