There are several versions of the Prism chipset around, I'm not entirely sure what the differences between them are. The difference in performance of PRISM cards among vendors can be just the difference in antenna structures of the cards.

A significant drop in performance from one card to the next most often means that the card is intersol. However, a reverse engineering effort eventually made it possible to use the new Prism54 chipsets under the Linux and BSD operating systems. Want to link to this manual page?

Conexant (formerly Harris/Intersil) PRISM II/2.5/3

HCF Light programming specificationhttp: I believe Prism1 chipsets are extinct and you are unlikely to find them anymore. The Prism brand is used for wireless networking integrated circuit commonly called "chips" technology from Conexant for wireless LANs. The following cards are among those supported by the wi driver: Version 4 and greater are Cardbus. Some cards are able to operate at either voltage, and some slots are able to accept cards that operate at either voltage.

Seems to quit responding to commands. Cards in this type of adapter should only be removed when the machine is powered down. Intersil Chilset cards must have firmware versions 0.
