I'm thining about buying wireless card for my t23. I'm considering mini PCI with AR5004X chipset.
Is anyone using it? I would like to know if it is good, and what drivers are available for it. I also want to know if it can work in monitor mode, what is very important for me. I'm using debian.
For monitor mode, any card based on the Atheros or Prism2 chipset will be a good choice, as both are excellent for packet injection and are widely supported by Linux. I have a Linksys WPC55AG based on the Atheros chipset, and it works brilliantly with Auditor and the new BackTrack
thanks for your help, you might expect more of my posts on this forum I'm running away from WinJunk so will need some help in setting up my t23 on debian
Debian is a solid distribution to begin with, although maybe a tad too complicated - however, if you like it, and are enjoying the learning curve, then stick with it..
