If you wish to continue down the orinoco gold or silver route, you can buy USB versions cheaply from ebay. Many users here have done it, they can be found with a quick search. "USB orinoco" ought to do it.

EDIT: Took me ages to downsize the picture and in that time there was another post.. Do these usb orinco cards support netstumbler???

Original Post:
Cool well the reason i wanted to use netstumbler was for signal strength testing of a 5 or 10 km link so that i can join a network called DDWireless in my area so I just have to use the built in monitoring software of the card although it doesn't give me all the info I want.

To link in I am using a Minitar Access Point (minitar.com) with an old austar antenna which i have cut the down converter off.

I have attached a picture

yes, or, at least, netstumbler supports them. Either way, it works, and has done for quire a while. Nice setup by the way, community wireless projects do rock the cazbhar.

You got that right! Two days ago I bought an 1150 off ebay for $41 total, that includes shipping. Can't wait for it to arrive!
