I think a couple more words are in order. They work OK. However, they are slower than the 2.0M aironet that I used at BSDcon. They are a lot slower than the 11M wavelan cards. They have a higher packet loss rate than the aironet or wavelan cards I've used here and at BSDcon. Their only advantage is cost. They are a lot cheaper than all other wireless cards because webgear went out of business and have been dumped in the market. I paid like $120 for my pair. So, comapred to the wavelan and aironet they suck. But compared to nothing, they aren't too bad.
