This mailing list is for "General Discussion about Arch Linux" [1]. [1] http://mailman.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/ Life questions should be addressed to https://bbs.archlinux.org (and you would find a better audience there).

For wireless devices, look at this list: http://linuxwireless.org/en/users/Devices/USB A device supporting hardware access point mode would be best. I used an old one from the list (a Zydas ZD1221) and it worked fine, but I didn't try to run an access point. -- -- Rogutės Sparnuotos
