a nice supported PCMCIA card or like i'm doing is currently using a
Microsoft MN-510 USB Adapter. It's got good range and even includes an
internal antenna connector, which with a little modding to the case
becomes an external antenna connector. :)
I see a list on the KisMAC website of a bunch of adapters that are
known to work. What's required to make them work with KisMAC? Does
there need to be a driver so that OS X can use the adapter as a network
connection, or does KisMAC talk to the USB adapter directly? And would
I need to load any KisMAC drivers to talk to a USB adapter?
Also, which USB 802.11 adapters work with OS X as another network
device?
I was thinking it would be nice to get something so I can hook up an
external Cantenna, do some scanning, and then if I find a good signal,
use the Cantenna to go online.
