Compatible wireless card?

I'm running Vista Ultimate RTM. I tried installing an ASUS WL-138g wireless
PCI card but it wasn't found by Vista. The latest drivers from ASUS are
dated 3/8/2005. The box says support for XP and doesn't mention Vista. I
ordered the card and didn't know. It seems this card is completely
incompatible with Vista.

Does any one know of a PCI wireless card that works with Vista?

Thanks,
Brett

>> I am using Linksys WMP54Gs which Vista does support

I just installed the Linksys WMPG54G. Does the "s" really make a difference
or work with Vista?

Thanks,
Brett
