Ditto, Wayne.
I think now the Atheros chipsets should be among the preferred wireless
adapters these days. I bought a Linksys WPC-55AG almost five years
ago and it worked like a champ with the Madwifi driver which was then
centered around a closed source HAL blob. I've been using ath5k for
about a year or more without issue.
Today I use it extensively with a Linksys WRT54AG router using WPA PSK
on 802.11a without issue at home. It has performed flawlessly on the
road at various hotels.
