What are Some Wireless G Cards that are Supported Natively (W/O NDISWrapper) by Fedora 7?

I'm installing Fedora 7 on several A22p Thinkpads and AMD x86-32
machines. I would like to purchase wireless cards for them so I can
use them on my home wireless network in areas where it is difficult to
run ethernet cable. I have previously beat my self up for scores of
hours with FC5 & 6 trying to get various brands of wireless cards to
work with some success but a lot of exasperation.

Would someone please tell us some of the models and brands of (1.)
PCMCIA (Cardbus), (2.) USB, (3.)PCI Wireless G cards that are known
to work natively with FC 7? (Preferably with ID of chip sets as
noted by lspci etc. since many of the card manufacturers change
chipsets over time on the same model card.)

I have some pretty good experiences to relate. It all depends on what kerel
version you are running, though. I'll assume you are running 2.6.22-1 :

1. Belkin 54g pcmcia card worked super with my laptop using madwifi as the
driver.

2. Gigafast brand (usb) worked right out of the box for my dad.

3. Belkin 54g usb stick (F5D7050B) worked perfectly right out of the box.

4. We tried every way in the world to get a linksys usb adapter to run, but
could never get it to work... Big headache!
