[X4U] Linksys

[Robb McDonald]

I am using the WRT54G router and Linksys PCI card in my Quicksilver with no
problems.  It has worked flawlessly.  I just plugged the card in and it saw
the router with no problems.  It also sees my daughters Belkin USB wireless
connection on her iMac.  The only time I hard wire to it is when I use my
Powerbook 1400 (no wireless card) Running OS9.  I also use the PB to change
the settings if I need to.

I have been using it for about 6 months or so with just about every version
of OSX.
