Wireless Lan Card

Hallo folks! I am looking for a Wireless PCI card, 802. 11g, with native linux support. I am tired of using ndiswrapper, which never worked for me anyway. Thank's All, Mwengwe.

Frankly, in terms of the "G" card series (I have 2) Linux has lagged behind in support. The only distro that I have that detected my Atheros chipset card was Linspire "out of the box."
 
I just got my Fedora Core 4 test 2 install to detect my Ralink card with ndiswrapper, but it was not easy. I was able to get ndiswrapper to work on my Puppy Linux install, as well. The Sourceforge Ralink drivers worked in my other Fedora Core 3 install and Suse install on the same card. None "out of the box." As the new versions of distros come out, I think that you will see more support, but I agree with Dan, the "B" series seem much better supported.
