Logan, I had a devil of a time getting any wireless card to work - I
finally gave up and bought a D-Link DWL-610+ wireless bridge and
connected to it via a cheap PCI ethernet card. That works fine and has
the added advantage of working with all three of the computers at my
desk without having to use a wireless card for each system - I just use
a switch. The drawback is that the bridge is quite a bit more expensive
than the wireless cards - about $70 to $80.
