It's all Netgear stuff and it works well. 1x WG511T (PCMCIA) and 2x |
| 8 |
WG311T (PCI). The driver is proprietary, but there is an open-source |
| 9 |
version in the works. Lots of info here: |

Right now I'm trying to figure out how to: |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
1. enable turbo mode (108Mbps) |
| 16 |
2. get it to operate on 5Ghz instead of 2.4Ghz (I guess this has |
| 17 |
something to do with 802.11a?) |
| 18 |
3. connect via WPA with wireless-tools instead of wpa_supplicant |
