Need some suggestions on good 802.11g NICs.

Ok fellas,

We have about 30 wireless workstations with Linksys 802.11g NICs. in seperate buldings using Cisco AIRONET 1200's as the Access Points. So far everything is working great between the AP's and the worstations.

My boss just asked me do to some research to see what other choices we have for the wireless NICs. We are about to setup another 30 workstations using Cisco 1200's as the Access Points. I suggested that we stay with the Linksys because we have not had any problems with them. He thinks it's also a good idea to stay with the Linksys NICs, but wanted to know what other choices we had. We gave Netgear NICs and shot before but they turned out to be a disaster. They always dropped the signal...they just sucked!!! So we replaced them with Linksys.

I think we should probably stay with Linksys. What do you guys think???

Uh, yeah, but Linksys produced quality networking equipment years before Cisco bought them. And as far as I can tell, Cisco has had only a cosmetic affect on Linksys. Linksys' business practices seem to be about the same.

porengo, is your boss's motivation to look into other WNICs to find equivalent units that are more inexpensive, or units that support a wider feature set?
