Mini-PCI card for injecting

[andeep]

Hello, I have been searching around for hours looking for a compatible MINI-PCI card for my laptop. I have come across some, but I do not know whether they will work. Please post any MINI-PCI cards that will inject and sniff packets.

I have come across some by googling atheros mini-pci.

Thank you

This atheros CM-9 has worked well for me with any distro I've tried it with. Monitor mode and injection are supported, out of the box, with BT. The price is right, too.

This is an older style mini-pci card, not a pci-e. It's an AR5004 chipset. Not the latest and greatest, but it's been a solid performer, for me.

Good Luck

Ah, I just realised that I need a PCI mini express card. I have been looking at the GN-WIO1GT that uses the AR5005GS chipset. Has anyone had any luck with this card?

I saw the link to that one here, too. If you end up getting it, post your findings. I've got a spare slot on one of my motherboards. It's a pci-e 1x, I think.

Is a MINI PCI Express card compatible with a PCI-E slot?
