802.11g cards

mike.. have you considered the possibility that your original card is

cisco stuff is generally pretty damn good in this arena.. all access 
points in mary gates are cisco to the best of my knowledge, and the fact 
that your card doesn't interoperate correctly with them seems anomalous.
