I've been using a Senao Engenius NL2511 (200mW) card for several years |
| 2 |
in my Gentoo Linux server as my AP. |
| 3 |
I use the host_ap drivers in the kernel and life is good. |

However, 802.11b is starting to show it's age at 11Mbps. |

Sooo.... |

I would love to upgrade this as painlessly as possible to one of the |
| 10 |
newer 'g' or 'n' cards (I currently have no 'n' cards, but AFAIK, |
| 11 |
they're backwards compatible right?). |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
I'm looking for either a PCI card, or a PCMCIA card that I can shove |
| 14 |
into my PCI/PCMCIA adapter I'm currently using. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
Also, I have a mixture of some 'b' devices and some 'g' (capable) |
| 17 |
devices. So it needs to work with both simultaneously (is that possible, |
| 18 |
or does the radio downgrade to lowest common denominator?) |
| 19 |

Ideally if it has MMCX connector so I can continue to use my 8dbi |
| 21 |
antenna and pigtail, that would rawk. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Can anyone suggest something that will work with hostapd and meet my |
| 24 |
needs? |
