<DIV>Hi all,</DIV>
<DIV><BR>I'm looking to connect an older (USB 1.1, Athlon-based) PC to my
home WLAN via a USB wireless adapter. Any recommendations for an
adapter that is currently for sale/commonplace (and, of course, cheap) and
works well with SuSE, Ubuntu, Fedora, etc. (and ideally also with Windows in
case it's needed)? </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>

802.11g, so it would need to work well on an 802.11g
network).</DIV></BLOCKQUOTE>I just bought one of these of the shelf <A

install, and has the bonus of a removable antennae so I built a home made
