Re: Proxim 8480-WD/8470-WD vs. D-Link DWL-G650

All these cards have the Atheros chip... Is any one better than the other?

8480 has A/B/G, 8470 has an external antennae jack and the G650 has "108 G"...

I already have the D-Link. Is there any reason to invest in the 8480 or 8470 for extra Linux/Auditor features over the D-Link?

I also have a Netgear DW511 that works great (PrismGT?)...

I am I all set or do I have the wireless PCMCIA fever?

Thanks,

Hi,
You can adjust TX power on Orinoco card and it has good RX sensitivity. From my limited experience D-link card gave most headaches. Once it messed up registry which needed total restore. I am running W2K Sp4 and Linux.
