I now have two Ubiquiti 802.11 a/b/g cards in my grubby little hands.
Now the question is how best to get one of these Ubiquiti cards used at the access point end of things. I was wondering if I could stick one of their cards in a spare computer and use that for the access point. Ubiquiti has a mini-pci and an cardbus version with roughly similar specs. The problem seems to be that mini-pci is "3.3 volts" and normal PCI is "5 volts". I assume the issue is both the power supply voltage and the signaling voltage on the bus. Did anyone here ever try to stick a mini-pci wireless card into their pci via an adaptor? Here is one that google found for me:
Would a generic pci-cardbus adaptor be safer? Any recommendations?
