Re: [Madwifi-users] 5213 Atheros Chipset

[Matte <erm...@gm...>]

Yes, I have a Javelin,I said I had a particular "Prism GT" card because =
of this thread which speaks about particular new Prism GT cards which =
have v2 driver on windows and are not working now.
Technically they are Javelin, like my laptop producer says.So no luck =
with this card, ok!
I'll buy an Atheros 5354CB +a2(f) by Senao from an English site to be =
able to set them with any local regulatory environment cause I could =
leave europe for a while...it would be better if you can suggest a less =
expensive similar card with same performance (b and g are already ok) =
and similar output power?
Thanks,Matteo.
