Which WiFi adapter cards do the cfstix and netCF expansion boards support?
http://linux-wless.passys.nl/ where you choose "CF" as interface and it returns http://linux-wless.passys.nl/query_hostif.php?hostif=CF list. The cfstix and netCF expansion boards should support a wide range of compact flash cards.

- a Netgear MA701 compact flash card for WiFi. This netgear card is available via Amazon dot com.

- The SMC 2632W

- the Ambicom WL1100C-CF card which is 802.11b works fine - edit the init.d file and comment out mmc stuff to enable CF and it should dhcp just fine. (Beware! Newer AmbiCom WL1100C WiFi cards do not seem to work at all, or poorly at best, even with the patch suggested in the Mailing list by Michael Taylor! )

- A Belkin F5D6060? - from TigerDirect for $20.
