I do not know much about wireless, and this list is not really a good 
list for such questions. Others here might be able to offer a quick 
answer of course, but if not, then the best place for such help would 
be the wireless forum on

Ubuntu Forums
http://ubuntuforums.org/

and specifically for wireless
http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=136

sorry I cannot offer more
