Re: REPOST: DSL/Networking Help
You don't specify how you will be using the wireless adapter -- PCI in a
desktop, pcmcia, (?). At any rate, this first link is pcmcia-only, and
was updated last just after linux-2.6.8 was released (the kernel used in
Sarge):
http://pcmcia-cs.sourceforge.net/ftp/SUPPORTED.CARDS
This page has a *great* overview of how to setup wireless networking in
a linux environment, and also has good links to compatible hardware:
http://www.linuxhomenetworking.com/linux-hn/wmp11-linux.htm#_Toc98941662
Also, this page has listings of both pcmcia and pci wireless card, and
even links to Amazon to buy the hardware:

Good luck

Just got my SBC DSL package with a 2Wire 1701 HG
Gateway, wireless router/DSL modem. I need 2 wireless
adaptors to complete the network hookup. Googled til
I about to shoot myself as I don't know/understand all
the rhetoric. I just need to know the brand, model,
chipset of a linux compatable adapter so I can get on
with the setup. I know about ndiswrappers but don't
have windoze XP. Would prefer an adapter with driver
included in kernel modules and what kernel version has
it included.
I'm not an experienced linux user and never have setup
a network before. Any help most appreciated.
