Hi all,
Is there anybody can tell me that if I can use the wlan card driver for PC
in the embedded system? I guess that there is something related to the
interface. Then if I use usb will it work? Or do I need to modify some
settings in the source code?
By the way can anybody give me some advice on card selection? Anything
related to vendors, chips, drivers, interfaces and so on would be helpful.
Better 802.11g cards.
Thank you all in advance and best regards!

You are a lucky guy!
I just did a similiar work today.
you can buy this wlan card: asus w167g (usb)
and get driver from here:
http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/rt2570-cvs-daily.tar.gz (for 2.6 kernel)
untar,
edit Makefile and specify your kernel source directory,
make arm
insmod ra2570.ko
then using iwconfig to config your wlan card
done

Then do you connected it to the usb1.1 port of omap? Will the interface
speed limits the wifi performance?
Thanks again.

Socket Communications can supply Linux drivers for their E-300 WiFi SDIO
card. I'm sure there are other vendors that have drivers available too.

unfortunately, yes.
you will need usb 2.0 interface to access the full speed of the 80211g wlan
card.

Then you implement the usb 2.0 interface with another chip? What is your
choice? The OMAP5912 only supports usb1.1 interface.
