[GLLUG] PCMCIA Wireless network card

[pdwald]

I would stick with atheros chipset. They have great support and
fucntionality under linux kernel. Among other things they support
promiscuous mode.
You should be able to download the latest version from:

http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=82936

Or from cvs.

Besides in many benchmarks atheros is always the winner (beating the so
called centrino technology). You don't want to use ndiswrapper (broadcom
variety, for instance)  since it reduces the functionality, open doors for
instability, and does not have all features.
