The problem is, the RTL8187L driver has only just been added to 8.0-CURRENT and this is for a production system, etc. This isn't a project that I can be on the bleeding edge with. So, I just want a rock solid _absolutely known to work with 6.x and 7.x_ USB wifi adaptor that can accept an external antenna. 802.11b/g, and the more powerful the better. Thanks. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
