Hello all,
I'm helping out my sisters work colleague regarding getting wireless setup for a new laptop she has purchased. Shes on a cable connection and so I'm probably going to go for something pretty decent value - probably the Linksys WRT54GSUK as they seem to do enough and are pretty relieable.
With PCMCIA Card
Router on its own
Now, i can either get the above with or without a PCMCIA card, with the latter obviously being more expensive. I was thinking of getting the router on its own and then seeing if they could use the built in wifi on the laptop. If that is good enough (range wise) then great.
BUT - if its not, then my queston is: Can i purchase any brand 54G PCMCIA card to work with this router? Will there be much performance degredation if use a different brand? I only ask because I dont want the costs to build up for this person, and if another brand still works then thats fine there are some cheaper ones than linksys out there - I believe that they are just going to be using it for general browsing etc
Any thoughts would be good
JP
