Ideal wireless card (WPA)

A little over a year ago I got a IBM T30 thinkpad and have ever since been trying to get various distrobutions running on it. In general it has been quite successful except I have never been able to get my Orinoco PCMCIA card working with WPA regardless of how much out-side help I received.

In a nutshell, I'm looking for suggestions of a wireless card that is known to work very reliably with WPA and support for the usual apps (Kismet and if possible Aircrack and its associated programs).


Thanks,

Get anything with an Atheros chipset. If you have a mini-pci slot in your laptop, try getting an Intel card.
