To find out which chipset your dongles use, try Googleing with
" linux WG111". You should have the chipset in the 1st or 2nd page.


Take a look at <http://madwifi.org> . Look for the Compatibility
page. It shows all of the Atheros cards that work with the madwifi
drivers. I have had very good results with the Netgear WG511U V2
PCMCIA cards. Very easy to setup and operate in a lot of different
modes.

So far, two wireless adapters have been mentioned as working with Etch,
(assembly required):

And the assembly is really difficult!

m-a a-i madwifi


Netgear WG511U V2 pcmcia card
Netgear WG511T pcmcia card

Is anyone out there using any other currently available wireless
adapters with Etch?

I guess you don't have the time to check that out on google either.
