Need help from people in the UK

craigs · 02-09-2005

Hi all - I intend to use airsnort/aircrack etc to crack my wireless lan.
In order to do so I need to buy a new wireless PCMIA card for my laptops.

(Can you believe it - I have two laptops and the builtin wireless cards they use are both unsupported

)

I have been over an hour on ebuyer.co.uk trying to find a card that will work FOR DEFINITE to no avail. It seems a lot of vendors have multiple "versions" of their cards on the market, some suitable, some unsuitable.

I am hoping someone can tell me which is the best card to buy, and where I can get it from.

To recap:
Must work under linux so I can take advantage of the various wireless tools available only to linux
Must work with the win32 wep crackers too
Must be readily available in the UK

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

thanks.

SEARCH!! !! Dumbass...

This has been covered ad nauseaum here.
The proper way of doing such stuff is : Read the documentation of the programs you wish to use, and see which cards are suppported by those programs.
Then purchase the card(s) which is supported by all or most of those programs.

We don't spoonfeed in here, we rely on people being able to utilize their brains.
