I have an Avaya World Card which has worked perfectly for years
with all successive versions of Redhat and Fedora, and all Linux kernels,
with the standard orinoco_cs driver.
This is a PCI-to-PCMCIA bridge,
with an Orinoco Gold PCMCIA card (802.11b) in it.
It's always worked "out of the box" for me
with every distribution - Knoppix, SuSE, Fedora, Windows-2k, etc,
that I have tried.

My advice would be to try to find a card that works
with the drivers provided with the kernel.
