I am Electronic Engineer and I use two a/b/g Chips. One is a Atheros
high performance transceiver (NDA required) and on is a Maxim MAX2828 +
MAX2829
Also a Maxim GPS chip MAX2769 and a "Quadratur Transceiver" for a GSM
Femto Station MAX2361.
No driver here and will never be, so I have to use the software provided
by the manufacturers, even if my Devices are designed to runwith Debian.
Thanks, Greetings and nice Day/Evening
