I have this card and it works well... this one is only $6 shipped!

if you look at other auctions, just look at ver3 not ver4 or others as they won't work...

for that price i should buy it, mine got bent a little and the LEDs don't work, but it still works fine :)

You must have went WEP with it.

If you want WPA/WPA2 you'll need v2 of prism2.device

The Readme in the above archive lists the compatible network cards, just buy one of them from eBay.

I finally found a laptop computer with PCMCIA and went to flash it to the latest only to find out that it already had the latest prism2 firmware and I did not have to do anything other than update the amiga driver, but you might need to flash it to get WPA. That is really true with any card you get I suppose.  

Forgot that detail. Sorry.
