Hi

I've just bought a Dell CPx J 750GT and want to pop a WiFi card into it.
Does anyone have any experience of any of the suppliers, I have looked at
Netgear, D-Link, Belkin and Intel and can't see much difference. It will be
used with my Netgear wireless ADSL router but also hopefully in WiFi
hotspots here and in New York. I'll be running Win2K.

Cheers

Ronan

I am running the Netgear WG511 for three months now with excellent reception

It seems that if you have the 54Mbps and on the system you are logging into,
if someone is using a 11mbps card, the whole system goes to that speed, so
probably better to stay at 11mbps at this moment in time.
I have 56 at home and 11 at work, so the dual card gives me the best of both
worlds, but I would imagine that the 11 is as good as the 56
