Cheap Wireless NIC - Report.

["Gareth Cook" <gcook@xxxxxxx>]

Well, I bought 2 x PC Cards, and 1 x PCI
Adaptor (for the server) from PC World.

This morning I took back 1 x pc card and
the pci adaptor - the pci adaptor was causing all sorts of problems,
including locking up the system, etc. I've now swapped for a USB one and
works fine (and saved a tenner) - this was on a Win2K server and Win XP
server.. Win XP refused to even acknowledge anything was in the pci
adaptor.

I have these running in peer-peer mode,
and , next to each other, getting 450k/sec - not bad at all.

So the pc card and usb together was £110
!
