To: <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com">ubuntu-users@lists.ubuntu.com</a> Message-ID: <1264284317.3401.103.camel@thor> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" Anybody know the best make/model for a USB wifi card for Ubuntu? I'm about to buy one, but need to know what is most/best supported. I looked at the linux wifi website, but it mostly talks about chipsets and that models sometimes change that up. I'm looking for something that is known to be the best to use. It may be used on a variety of laptops, and maybe even some desktops...

To both win and Ubuntu it looks just like a ethernet cable. I know of 2- linksys n and a d-link 108 g . see respective web sites. Been using the d-link for yrs. Works great. chris smale </body> </html>
