OK, I've never done wireless with Linux before,
and (surprise) it's
apparently a baffling ordeal, as lots of common devices aren't
supported!
Lot of this devices are "windows designed" :(
All I need to know is "does the Linksys WUSB 54G
work OOTB". IOW
configure the kernel source, make, make install and no f*ing with out of
tree drivers.
Well USB wifi hardware sucks, they need firmware and so on.
I managed few month ago to make a MA111 (prism 2) working with
linux-wlan-ng on Knoppix but it was unstable and wlanng seems not to
support new 2.6 kernel very well.
I've a pci rtl8180 (realtek) which is unusable: neither ndiswrapper
neither proprietary driver for linux works at home.
My 2 cents,
