How about PCI Wireless Cards???

martindw
Has anyone got any info about whether ASL can handle a PCI wireless card instead of PCMCIA with adaptor?  Seems these would be more logical 'cause they have a connector for an external antenna. . .at least they'd be more logical for *MY* hoped-for application, which is to do a long-distance point-to-point with a directional antenna!  Clues, anyone?

    Assuming it has the Prism chipset on the WLAN card itself, it should work. I can't imagine any other type of PC Wireless adapter since 90% of them are just PCI PCMCIA adapters with their PCMCIA WLAN counterpart installed.

    This is pure speculation, however.

    ASL 5.x still supports PCMCIA wireless cards. SOME PCI adapters work. 
    I have a Linksys PCMCIA card in a DLINK PCI adapter.
    Search these forums for more info.

    If you have a decent AP, that would be preferable.
