So, ive checked the list of verified working network cards. I saw the d-link g650 and ordered it, only to find out that tiger direct is shipping out the b5 version, not the c2 version. So im trying to decide whether i want to try to make this one work with ndiswrapper, or if anyone knows of a better PCMCIA wireless card i can exchange this for. I've got DSL installed on the HD, so i could, in theory, simply make a script that does all the set up work, but ive yet to get the card to work at all (havent tried very hard, but i do understand that it is posisble).

Ideally, id like a card that works out of the box on boot with DSL, but if anyone has any other simple solutions, im all ears.
