Wanted: PCMCIA wireless card

Ay up all - I'm in the need of a fairly current PCMCIA wireless card (one that'll support WPA and better)

Bought a Linksys off EBay and it's a duffer - locks every laptop up it's inserted into.

So - Netgear would be spot on, Belkin, etc...

I used to have a job lot of them myself but disposed of thinking I'd never need them again.....

Thanks all - Fingers crossed!

Michael

Thanks chaps - good suggestions!

I'm buying this for a colleage - promised to sort wifi on her laptop, Confident it'd take pci which it didn't...only then to be let down by a friend who said he'd mailed the cards twice, then bought duff of Ebay...

Now I'd just like to hand it back sorted before she thinks I've run off with her machine!

Graeme - Forgot about that company you know so well!

That's about my price range- wasted more on the Ebay Linksys! What's the brand like? It is one I've heard of and used but only ever known the one device!

What's the PP on that? Would that company you know so well be able to accept PayPal?

Really appreciate the offer Gav but the laptop only has one usb and she connects her memory stick and printer to it regularly. It has to be PCMCIA annoyingly. Thanks anyway
