Hi.
1st of all, sorry for my english: i hope that's all will be comprehensible.
then. I've to buy a wireless card for my ibm z50 (is coming from US,
bought with ebay)(hpcmips port); i need a pcmcia and cheap device,
probably findable trough ebay europe.
In this [1] page, the author write about d-link dwl 650 and linksys
wpc11.
the first have many revisions (as far I understand, supported
until v.3), the second is extremely rare to find.
I would to use the ibm z50 wireless set during the what_the_hack event
at end july and then I've to buy this wifi card soon. I can't buy it
from USA because the delivering time (with cheap shipping service) and
then I've to see on Europe.

I never use Netbsd; my experience with *nix are only with debian linux.

Which card you suggest (possibly, card esay to find here in Europe) ?
It's the dwl 650+ supported from netbsd hpcmips? I've found a lot of
bids on ebay with this card.

many thanks=20
