WikiDevi or How to avoid buying an unsupported Wifi card

[JudasIscariot]

Hey all,

I found this great site that can help out those of us who want to buy another card but are not sure as to which chipset resides within or what drivers it uses under Linux.

Basically, you can search just by the manufacturer's name alone or you can put in the manufacturer and the model number. Plus, this site informs you whether a given card had different versions and whether the hardware from version to version was changed.

I hope this will be of use to some of you in a small way.
