[CoLoCo] Slow Wireless in Gutsy?

[Rick Ross]

I don't know if this is any use to you, but my wife's NetGear PCMCIA
card is "wicked fast" in both her laptop and mine, and Gutsy
automatically loaded the driver and got it running. I plan to buy two
more here shortly for my other two laptops. I noted the exact card
number on the Forums. If you're interested and can't find it, let me
know and I'll look at it when I get home. HTH. -- Rick
