Linksys WAP54G
Linksys WRT54G
Dell Truemobile 1450
D-Link A/B/G PCMCIA card
D-Link DWL-G120 (USB)
Linksys WPC54GS

Everything above uses broadcom chips except for the D-Links, which use Atheros and Prism chips.

So, what is going to be different if I upgrade to 802.11i drivers?

There are not a lot of differences between WPA and 802.11i.

Any hardware that works with WPA will work with 802.11i.

The spec has been stable for almost a year. Changes were cleaning up the text.

A lot of vendors should have code out quickly, as will MS (for XP and Win2000).]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,10595226 Thu, 24 Jun 2004 10:17:52 EDT Re: Security good http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,10595078 Karl Bode : The majority of chips shipped by 2002 should have enough processing power to be able to handle it with just a firmware upgrade.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,10595078 Thu, 24 Jun 2004 09:54:39 EDT Re: Security good http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,10595058 BigARR :

This is good that the IEEE is working to get things accomplished at a good pace. But once its ratified I wonder how long it will take for the vendors to implement.


And...when they do will it require new hardware or just a firmware upgrade?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,10595058 Thu, 24 Jun 2004 09:52:04 EDT Re: Security good http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,10595049 smp606 : Yes! hopefully vendors will implement this within a month or two...]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,10595049 Thu, 24 Jun 2004 09:51:09 EDT Security good http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,10595014 Lumberjack : This is good that the IEEE is working to get things accomplished at a good pace.
