Red face Which wireless cards better support antenna/amplifier


Hi,

I try to find one card for better supporting antenna and amplifier under
Linux environment.

the possible candidate chip sets could be:

Atheros
Cisco Aironet
Orinoco
Prism

It seems that Buffalo's Airstation supports amplifier but no linux driver
available.

Would you please help me figure it out?
Thanks!

You don't mention which distro you're using, but we've had nothing but success with Orinoco and "orinoco-compatible" (e.g. Dell TruMobile) under RH 8+ or Mandrake 9.2+
Just got some Cisco Aironets in -- will likely be playing with them presently . . .
