I used to use a Netgear PCMCIA card which worked fine and you didn't have to use its own software.

Subject: [access-uk] Wireless cards


Hi all,

For the past two and a half years I've used a D-Link DWL-520 PCI wireless card in my desktop machine to connect to my home network. The card has worked fine, but is now starting to play up. I'd therefore like to replace it, and was wondering if anyone else has experience of installing and setting up such cards.

While I've no complaint with the performance of the DWL-520, I've been well hacked off by the inaccessibility of the supplied software. Moreover, D-Link insist that you use their own configuration utility and disable the wireless network set-up functions in Windows XP. I'd therefore be especially grateful to hear about PCI cards which either come with accessible software, or which can be configured within Windows XP.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
