I have about 7 client PCs (mostly SuSE linux 9.2) to network (again, after a fire), and I want to do it wirelessly this time. I'm used to having a laptop client, but not desktop clients. I have an 802.11g access point. I'm looking for suggestions -- PCI cards, PCMCIA adapters and PCMCIA cards, WRT54G in client mode, others? I don't see typical Linksys PCI cards indicated as being supported.
I found a native (no adapters needed) PCI card that uses the Intel 802.11b/g chipset. This is the chipset with the 100% GPLd driver that is being integrated into the kernel. The website for the driver is: http://ipw2200.sourceforge.net/ I believe the SUSE 9.2/9.3 kernel already has the driver, though it may not be the newest. The card is model number is: 2225BG Google has lots of hits and info on it: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=2225BG&btnG=Google+Search Dax Kelson Guru Labs
