I'm guessing what I see is the first one.

I have 4 cards (wi) that work:

- Orinoco Silver
- Orinoco Gold
- Netgear (don't remember the model, - it's prisim 2.5 based and 
supports hostap)
- EnGenius (2511CD PLUS EXT2)

Those that don't (ath) in both 6.3 and 7.0 RC2:

- Netgear WPN511
- Ubiquiti SRC Cardbus Card

I'll test this one (ath) once it arrives:

- CB9-GP-EXT 802.11a/b/g External Antenna Cardbus Card
