The problem is that manufacturers change the implementation without changing the model number, so you also have to check the suffix/revision. At least the orinoco card changed model numbers. There is a new Atheros driver. NetBSD has an ADMtek driver, and hence FreeBSD likely will soon. I suspect one of the linksys and dlink might have one of those chips. I have no idea what chip is in the orinoco. Running strings on the windows driver might be interesting.
