[mythtv-users] Wireless Frontend Success

Hello All,

I was able to setup a wireless frontend that work great, with no
skipping using 802.11g Proxim b/g card and Linuxant DriverLoader. 
DriverLoader lets you use the windows driver .inf under linux.  I was
skeptical until I tried it.  I was able to get full 54mb connection and
smooth display with MythTv and MythVideo.  The madwifi drivers currently
wont give you more than 11mb right now , so until that happens I will be
using the DriverLoader.  Right now you register for a free trial
license, and I think their is a cost involved for the perm license.  

This isn't meant to be an advert for LinuxAnt.  I just thought that it
would be good info for anyone wanting to setup an 802.11g frontend for
chipsets that dont have linux native drivers yet....
