These WiFi cards are supported under a variety of operating systems such as Linux, FreeBSD, Win32 also they work with NetStumbler for those who are interested in finding open access points. You can also find the external antenna's for these cards here: http://www.rangeextender.com/25mimagmoan.html 2.4GHz 5.5dBi Mini Mag Mobile Antenna with MC Card Connector MA24-5-MC I highly recommend the Orinoco Classic Gold Card and the 2.4GHz 5.5dBi Mini Mag Mobile Antenna with MC Card Connector. Trust me you will be happy with the setup. Excellent range and a very strong WiFi Card. Forget all the rest.
