Look for Level One WNC-0301USB. There are several revisions, but I checked the Windows drivers, and all appear to have corresponding Linux drivers: rt73usb, rt2500usb, rtl8187 and zd1211rw. My device is revision v3. It's supported by rt73usb driver and works in Fedora 8 out-of-box (at least with their updated current kernel). -- Regards, Pavel Roskin - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
