I've used it successfully with the Atheros chipset in the D-Link DWL-G650 (rev B), NetGEAR WG511T, and the onboard Atheros chipsets in a handful of different laptops. Not sure which drivers support 802.11n (up to 480 Mbps or something like that), though, as I don't have access to any 802.11n hardware. -- Freddie Cash fjwcash@gmail.com
