Logan,

Be careful! Linksys WPC11 ver 3 cards work fine (I have one), but they
recently upgraded(?) to a different chipset which is known to be incompatable
with Fedora drivers. Avoid ver 4. Luckily, the version # is printed on the
outside of the box. The changeover was recent, so you may be able to find ver
3 cards.
