Re: help a silver surfer!

But Les, forget about Navas, what do you recommend for Silver Surfer, who
probably just wants decent wireless internet access

Dunno about that - depends on what you consider "client bridging".

A WRT-54G v8 running DD-WRT in their interpretation of
client bridge mode is actually cheaper than most USB adapters.
Seems to run very well - the USB adapters that are cheaper also seem to
die young...

You can probably get a better one for PCI, but USB is easier

I have a desktop pc with no wireless capability.
Should I go for a USB adaptor - or a PCI(?) card?
Which is best?
