Wireless

[-(Xyphox)-]

Does anyone know a wireless card that will work for Windows Server 2003?

Won't most of them that have a Windows 2000 or Windows Xp driver? Since all those OS are built on about the same core.

yeah but will a xp or 2000 driver work in a server??
Most server's are not designed to have wirless cards in them
The Server is running Windows Server 2003

When it's in the computer, does it automatically assign a generic driver to it?

have not tried it yet, a small school wants us to find them a card that will work, but i know server's are not designed to have wireless cards so i thought they needed a specific card. Its a Dell Server running Small Business Server 2003

If you have the XP driver, it will work. If it's a common wireless card, W2K3 may already have the driver for it.

If I were you, I would strongly advise the school against putting a server on a wireless connection. They're asking for headaches doing that.

I'll keep an eye out for a wireless NIC that has drivers certified for Win2k3 Server for you though.
