Hello Everyone,

I'm also trying to sort out which wireless card is
best for current orinoco and hostap drivers (reason
why I'm after Prism based ones). I also found sites
showing step-by-step instructions if you wish to add
an external antenna to the DWL650:

As claimed by others on the list, DWL650H works great
with the orinoco driver. I'd like to know if anyone is
using this card with the current hostap
driver(Prism2-2002-05-19 release) with great success.

TIA - Vic
