Does anyone know a good source of 802.11a radios? both pcmcia and mini-pci?

And also antennas for them? or do the antennas for 802.11b/g work ok?

:)

802.11b/g antennas will not work when running in the A band. (2.4ghz vs 5.x ghz) B antennas will work fine for G transmission.

Not sure about the mini pci or pcmcia, as far as I'm aware Star-os doesn't support pcmcia 802.11A adapters, so mini pci is the best bet if you can't do pci.

For pci, the dlink A/G cards can be had for a little less than $70 on amazon.

Good luck sean.
