    Does anyone know of any highpowered (150mW+) wireless cards with a mini-pcie connector? preferably prism or atheros chipset..

    i know theres lots of high powered mini-pci cards, but i can't find any for pci-e

    either that, or a expresscard slot one (preferably one with external antenna support)

    i wanna occasionally go wardriving so a high powered card is a must :D

    If you're looking to use Kismet, you need receiver sensitivity, not transmitter power.
