Hi,
I would recommend getting a prism chipset or a Orinoco chipset. I have
the SENAO NL-2511CD EXT2 (prism chipset) and a Cisco Aironet 350. Using
Kismet and tools for wep cracking work great with my Cisco Aironet 350.
However if you want to use a program such as void11 to perform
de_authenication and use the HostAP drivers you need to have a prism
chipset based card. Prism chipset based cards are an all around great
chipset, It works well performing wep and wpa cracking and still has the
ability to work with most penetration testing tools. Note : The Senao
NL-2511cd does not have a internal antenna. I bought a small MMCX
antenna that hooks into it. I also use a 7db and a 14db antenna(yagi) as
well. My Senao works great with void 11,wep_crack,kismet,airdump, and
other tools on backtrack and auditor.

Get an Orinoco Gold with the Hermes2 chipset. Then use the Backtrack
LiveCD
and you're set to pen-test.

Hi,

of
the wireless section too.
