Title: Wifi Cf Card For Z
Post by: Hacdan on January 03, 2008, 03:21:48 pm

I'm looking for a CF Wifi card for my C1k, I just joined the board, so you don't know me ;(. But anyways, I was looking for a CF Wifi card that can do packet insertion, something of small form factor would be nice (aka doesn't stick out too far ) but that isn't of major concern. If I missed if this has already been posted, I do apologize. Just I can't find one that  can do packet insertion and has a passive mode. Or I should say that I know for sure can do these things. Thanks in advance

PS: something cheap wouldn't hurt, something like under $100.00 Us would be nice

*Edit* Guess it must have been a dumb question, I am deeply sorry for posting this, because of my lack of knowledge of wireless networking  My bad.

AFAIK, compact flash wifi  cards all have  prism 2/2.5/3  chipsets  and thus all of them support packet injection if  using correct drivers.

As for size this will help you decide.

Your distro has to support injection, though. Ones that I know work:

Angstrom
pdaXrom r198*
Cacko for Cxx00**

*after you flash my kernel
**I saw patched drivers somewhere, have not tested them
