I was pleased to find a Belkin wireless G card model F5D7010,
version 5.000 that has the Athenos chipset in it, for $35 at Home
Depot, AND IT WORKS !

Just wanted to pass this along as I bought several cards that were
supposedly Linux capable, but then wouldn't work.

Home Depot?!? Don't they sell lumber and light fixtures?

I've been watching the same thing now for years (I don't do wireless;
I just watch it).
