The other alternative is to find a robustly supported wireless card
for the linux box (and its AMD64 kernel) that works well with Ubuntu
7.04. A USB 2.0 dongle thing would be okay, if any of those usually
work with Linux, else we have PCI slots to work with (or even an extra
firewire port, for that matter.
Good luck finding a Linux-supported wireless card. I drove all over
town once looking for one. You'll probably end up with a PCMCIA
adapter and a laptop wireless card.
The other other alternative is a short network cable to a wireless
bridge. The better consumer routers can operate in this mode. I'm
using a little dedicated bridge on my print server, the D-Link
DWL-800AP+. It works, but I don't recommend this device. The
firmware is lousy.
