Wireless PCI card support ?

As the subject says I want a wireless card compatible with my PCI version of Astaro so below.

Is there a list of compatible hardware ? Or a proposal ?
If possible: B / G / N

Astaro release: 8202

Thank you!

Hi Tioui,

what do you want to use the wireless card for?

As a wireless client to connect to another wifi AP or as an access point so other wifi clients can connect the ASG?

If the later is the case, please take a look at our Astaro Access Points, they will solve your problem.

thx Gert

I'm looking for just a Wireless card compatible with my existing system, locally to my current network.

I tried a TP-LINK RL-WN851N does not work, especially a model that could work ?

I already have a public AP. But nothing listed private

Thank you!

Hi.
ASG does not support on board wifi cards.

You either use an Astaro APxx as suggested by Gert or you have ethernet connect like a linksys WAP200 or similar.

It is trivial to take a consumer wireless router and turn it into an access point. Configure the wireless, disable the dhcp server, disable the WAN interface, plug one of the LAN ports into your LAN, and voila.

Or use a wireless bridge, if that's what you need.
(cat5 ethernet to wifi)
