2) Madwifi [1] is terrific code, albeit unfree (it's in Debian non-free). Cards that claim support for 108 Mbps probably use Atheros chips that are supported by Madwifi, since 108 is a proprietary Atheros extension to the 802.11g standard (you don't have to enable 108 [Turbo], of course]. I believe something similar holds for 125 Mbps and Broadcom chipsets. Celejar
I should have warned that Madwifi only supports PCI / PCMCIA cards; USB adapters aren't (yet?) supported. The USB chipsets apparently use an entirely different architecture, and utilize a firmware, unlike the PCI / PCMCIA chipsets. Celejar
