Wireless - Prism54 drivers for prism chipsets

Does anyone have any experience with these? I'm trying to get a fedora core 4 linux desktop working with my wireless network. I'm thinking the first PCI card:

and:

http://prism54.org/

will hopefully work. Anyone have any advice/comments? Thanks

should work like a charm. wish i had gone there and realized that my smc usb dongle was a rev. 2 and is not supported...<sigh> before i shelled out $45 for it. the prism isl3880 is supported. I don't believe you can use wep or wpa with it. if you need security, look at ndiswrapper with wpa supplicant

WEP works well with prism54 cards. Edit your /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1 to add:

KEY=096Bwhatever and you should be good.
