Re: Wireless cards that work!

Yeah, Master mode is what I need, too. I've got cards at home, and cards
at work, and none of 'em will do master mode. And fakeap wont' work
without master mode! (Well, ad-hoc mode works, but the WAPs it creates
aren't permanent.)

Anybody have a card or two that does master mode that wants to go to the
meeting next week? I've got some fun antennas and fakeap working on my
laptop.
