Hello,
can someone recommend me wireless USB adaptor, which is supported in Centos 5.7? I found information about various chipsets, but nothing like "device X is OK". In most online stores the chipset is not announced.
Thanks in advance.
I like the RTL8187. I use it for WEP cracking and extended range. Works well. If not this, use the site linked to help identify an alternative:

It is tough to say X device is ok because vendors ignorantly change the chipsets they use and still give devices the same model name/number (and if we're lucky changing the version number...).
As Justin top-posted ;) RTL8187 works well. As do RT2500-based wireless chips. Even some Zydas chips (zd1211rw - I believe Backtrack had a patched driver for injection) aren't all that bad (Atheros bought them [0] a while back).
Buffalo AirStation WirelessG (U2KG54) USB dongles have an RT2500 chip in them.
