My experiences with D-link stuff has been pretty bad. Poor signal strength and
quality, constant drop and refind of wireless networks. I've had better luck
with the Linksys equipment and Orinoco for wireless networks. I like the
Orinoco stuff the best because of the connector on the cards that lets you add
an antenna or an amp/antenna combo.

I'm guessing these are for Windows boxen as I don't see any support for them for
Linux...
