Well, time is rolling around to add wireless to my p4c800-e, so the wife
can access her files and my printer, looking around for a decent WiFi
card, stumbled on the ASUS WiFi@Home adaptor, and at 30$ CAN, its too
good a deal to pass up, but the problem is I run Linux, and not Windows
primarily on this machine.

Could anyone who has purchased the WiFi@Home add in card for ASUS
Motherboards (the one that plugs in their special slot near your last
PCI slot) perhaps let me know what /chipset/ runs it? I would like to
find out its compatibility before finding out its only supported in
Windows....

Thanks in Advance,
Philip

The WiFi card which was included with my A8V Deluxe board has the Ralink
RT2500 chipset on it,link below.

Thanks very much!

I asked ASUS, got a standard useless reply without the specification I
asked for.

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
