We've got this brand new (in box) wireless PCMCIA card here for sale that works with laptops that run Windows 98SE, ME, 2000, and XP. It is also compatible with Macintosh operating systems 10.0 through 10.4. The item is new in retail box and was distributed only with Windows drivers on the manufacturers CD. As a courtesy to customers, we will also include in the shipment a CD-R which contains a copy of the Mac drivers found on the original manufacturers CD, of which we were able to obtain one copy for this purpose. The official Hawking web page for this item can be accessed by clicking here. At this page you can find advanced information about this card, and there is also toll-free 24X7 support phone number there. This page also contains all of the download links for the Mac drivers and installation guides/manuals in case you should ever misplace the CD-ROM.

About this item: this is a not just any standard wireless PCMCIA card. The antenna that is built into it flips upward (as you can see in the picture), and is rotatable virtually 360 degrees (does not quite turn a full circle). It is also a high gain 6 dBI antenna, which is about three times the gain of storebought wireless cards like Netgear and D-Link. The antenna is a directional antenna, so you will need to rotate it in the general direction of the access point to which you want to connect. As it rotates virtually 360 degrees, you can scan for wireless access points in any direction. This is a 32-bit cardbus card and will work on any Mac or PC laptop that has one of the above noted operating systems and a 32-bit cardbus PCMCIA slots (most laptops made within the last 7 years have cardbus slots).

This is an 802.11g card with top speeds of 54 megabits per second (mbps) when used with standard wireless access points. When used with Super G compatible access points, you can achieve speeds up to 108 mbps.
