I hate to say "me too" but I've just started looking at the same thing. I'm also running RH9 and am looking at 802.11b. So far I've found info that I should not use anything with the broadcom chipset since there are no drivers for them. I have not found anything that lists which cards suse which chipsets. I did talk to someone who said he tried all sorts of cards and none of them ever worked. He ended up getting a wireless bridge that plugged into his existing NIC and sort of turned it into a wireless card. Anyway Steve, if you get any off list replies, please share or summarize them. I for one would be interested. Charlie -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
