Hello,

I'm looking for a wireless usb-adapter so that I can use it with both
laptops and desktops. Speed is not critical so usb 1 and 11b will do fine.

Linux with fresh kernels will be the os on the computers. Anyone out there
know how nice those three adapters will play with the penguin:

Netgear - ma111 (or ma111nd)
D-Link - dwl-122
3com - 3crshew696


If any patches or extra drivers need to be applied that would be good to
know about too.

TIA

Sounds good. I'll take a look at those links.

Already googled for info and found out they should work. Thought I'd ask
in this group anyway to hear from people actually using them if they have
something to say besides what google says.
