OK, I just got off the phone with tech support and they only use the
"Broadcom" chipset with the WLI-PCM-L11GP cards. I asked about the Agere and
Prizm and he said that they haven't used these before. I hope that this is
accurate and helps.

How do you tell? I have the serial, part and T/N number? I also checked
properties under the Hardware Manager in windows with no luck.
I checked the website as well
http://www.buffalotech.com/wireless/products/airstation/WLIPCML11GP.html no
luck. I'll send a request in to determine the chipset and report back.

Uh Oh! LOL.
Be careful with Paul recommendation also!
It appears based on my info that Buffalo actually sold 2 different
cards with that label (bastards).
One of them has the Agere chipset and the other the Prizm.
Paul , do you know which chipset your working card has?
