Is there a router and software that works nicely with XP and Linux?

What features of Network Magic are you using? (I’d never heard of it). I can’t see any mention of Linux on the NM website. I’d try it without Network Magic and see if that works.

I’ve never had a router that didn’t work with both linux and XP. I’ve only used D-link and Netgear routers though. It doesn’t seem like Network Magic is built to work with linux though. Is Network Magic a software you put on the router? Or do you install it on a computer that is connecting to the router?

I got it to work after lots of messing around on dlink website. changed from wpa to wep. I am sure it was mostly my stupidity. The terms they use in linux and wireless networking are not intuitive to me.

now my question is, how do I make my network to be the default network, it likes to selected the weaker neighbor’s linksys. (I am glad that one is there for a back up!)

Also how do I get eeebuntu standard to remember the key? Right now I have to punch it in every time I connect to the network.
