SUBJECT: NetStumbler - General
Q: Does my (card brandname/chipset) work with NetStumbler?
A: Network Stumbler 0.3.23 works with cards using the HERMES chipset:
Lucent Technologies WaveLAN/IEEE (Agere ORiNOCO); Dell TrueMobile 1150 Series (PCMCIA and mini-PCI); Avaya Wireless PC Card; Toshiba Wireless LAN Card (PCMCIA and built-in); Compaq WL110; Cabletron/Enterasys Roamabout; Elsa Airlancer MC-11; ARtem ComCard 11Mbps; IBM High Rate Wireless LAN PC Card; 1stWave 1ST-PC-DSS11IS, DSS11IG, DSS11ES, DSS11EG; Sony Vaio PCG-R600 (Uses Orinoco MiniPCI)

Network Stumbler 0.3.23 DOES NOT work with cards using the Prism chipset:
3Com; Cisco; Compaq WL100; Dell TrueMobile 1100 Series; D-Link; IBM built-in cards; Intel; Intermec; Linksys; Symbol; SMC; Some Sony built-in cards??; Any 802.11a cards.
Just been stumbling on a nice new Sony Vaio PCG-R600 and i can confirm it works perfectly with Netstumbler under WinXP. I belive all the new Viao's use the same Orinoco MiniPCI card and should work with netstumbler.
