    yikes. That's not a good wireless pcmcia card.

    I recommend a D-Link D-Link DI-614+ for a WAPR and an Orinoco Gold or any Cisco cards for the machines. Second thoughts, if you want to take advantage of the 22mbs link or the 256 WEP, go for the D-Link cards that match up with the 614+.

    The reason why TigerDirect is so cheap is because they sell your information VERY fast.

    What is that wireless pci card?

    Your other 2 should be fine. If you want to go for range, invest in an external antenna.

    I'm using an orinoco gold and a linky befw11s4 v2. A less of a WAPR but I still download at the same speed as my desktop. I did a large file transfer today, was about 1.3mb/s.
