Vista - Vista supported Wireless USB Drive & PCI Card

Hello All,

I have a Netgear WG111 USB Adapter, which doesn't work with Vista.
I am looking for a new USB Adapter / PCI Card which is supported by Vista
(Installed & worked with no hassles).
I tried to find a forum which shows this information, but I couldn't get one.
Can anyone update this with Information for following:

1) Which Wireless USB Adapter / PCI Cards are supported by Vista?

2) Where can I find best information about above (Links if possible)?

Thanks in Advance.

Aside from the manufactures' sites you might try PROnetworks at
http://www.pro-networks.org/. There are tons of Vista stuff there including
software.

I have a Ralink rt2500 chipset on my wireless pci card. The drivers were
installed when Vista x64 installed. I’m running Windows x64 and Vista x64
(5384). Wireless cards using this chipset are listed at
“http://ralink.rapla.net/�. I haven’t installed Vista 32 bit so I don’t know
about 32-bit drivers but they also should be available out of the box.

Did you try installing the drivers for XP? Sometimes, the drivers/installation
program will work in Vista.
