i am in need of a wireless card for an older laptop running woody 3.0. i have three different brands available in my area (netgear, linksys, microsoft), although i possibly could order a card in the two week's time available to me before i _have_ to have it. i currently use a cabled 10/100 netgear card, and had no trouble with it so it (netgear) is currently my top choice (if i don't hear otherwise).
i have heard good things about an oronico (sp?) silver/gold card, but haven't seen them on a shelf anywhere (office depot, office max, wal-mart). also, the company will be using a proxy server (if i understood correctly) and is willing to let me do my "linux update thing" (sysadmin's words) if i can go through their server. i believe i just need to create a apt.conf file in /etc/apt/ and place http_proxy=192.168.1.100:8080 (or whatever their proxy and port is) inside. is this correct? thanks for the information, preston -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
