Hello everyone.

After a complete and unsuccessfully installation of my internal wireless card of my HP ZD8000, I decide to buy a PMCIA card. But before buying it, I would like to have some suggestions......which one do you recommend to have?

PS: I have a Motorola WR850GP Router.

All your help and suggestions are appreciated.

Does your laptop have a Broadcom AirForce One 54g (BCM4318 based) card?

If so here is a link to a linux driver you may want to try: http://bcm43xx.berlios.de/

In the same page it reads: "This driver was included into the Linux kernel since 2.6.17-rc2". Did you try this kernel yet?

Regards,

Paolo.

Hello,

Thank you for your posts.

I solve it and now I have wireless....the issue was the firmware of the router...I updated it and now everything like a charm.
