Hi, Murray Cumming did a series of blog posts, trying to find the best supported wireless USB adaptor. His latest post reviews the four he found best. http://www.murrayc.com/blog/permalink/2007/02/17/linux-compatible-wireless-usb-adaptor-results/ They were tested in Ubuntu so the results in Debian may not be the same, but should at least be a good indicator if they can be made to work. -- Cheers, Sven Arvidsson http://www.whiz.se PGP Key ID 760BDD22
