Anyone using an Orinoco 8470-WD?

I recently bought the Buffalo card before reading c{rey}c's post and I made the same discovery he did. I'm not going to remove my airport card to use the buffalo, so it's going back to Amazon.

For Attempt #2, I'm about to buy an Orinoco 8470-WD.
Does the Orinoco 8470-WD capture at G rates?
Does it operate in Passive mode?
What's a good pigtail to get for the card?

It seems the answer to the first two is 'yes', but I'd like confirmation (i see lots of references to Orinoco Gold cards, but there are lots of differently spec'd card with that name). My gear is a Powerbook 15" 1.5GHz, latest Tiger, latest KisMAC.

Ideally I want a PC Card that will work in passive with Kismac at high speed with an external antenna connector. I don't want much, eh?

Any reply appreciated.

Is it a "G" card? Why the need for "G" capture rates?

What do the docs for the app you want to use say?

One that actually works with the card!

Get a "Classic Gold" It will work in monitor mode with kismac. Use the pigtails that you need. You can get them from fab-corp. There's no such thing as high speed capturing.
