I've had mixed results off various people with the WPC54G - if you have a stab at it after reading the sticky guide and still have problems try and find me when I'm online on Kai.

Ian, took one of those back yesterday because I was getting the same as you, my PC would connect to the PSP, but Kai wouldnt.

I have a WLI-USB-KB11 arriving tomorrow from eBuyer which I'm told will work.

Are you sure you've tried every possible step - including changing adapter properties in Device Manager and even the dreaded upgrade to WinXP SP2 (backup your software FIRST if you are going to do this one though).
Also you haven't been reading other peoples posts - they are available from Ebuyer - got mine today (ordered and posted yesterday).

I have sat up on the pc everynight for two days trying to get it to work..
I think i can say they dont. !!!!

can also confirm that the D-Link DWL-122 Works. Have hosted many games and joined 1.
One thing i would like to know, is once i have hosted a game and its finished, is there anyway i can exit that game and host another one without having to shut the psp down and do it all again?

Can i just use my Linksys Access Point?

just use your wireless to connect to psp and the wired ethernet on back to connect to kai. thats how i did it. unless you want it fully wireless and have two wireless adapters, one going to psp and another to kai.

try it

I can confirm the Linksys WPC54G card does work but in a bit of a diminished fashion. I am only able to create a game s Leader prior to connecting to Kai. Once a game has finished it will not allow another game to be created as the Leader.
The connection on my laptop shows the PSP connection as full 11Mbps. Once the raceis over the PSP connection changes to 1Mbps.
I was also able to connect to someone else created game but the game was terminated before the actual race.
As soon as I can I will attempt a bit of testing with someone locally and throw in my 802.11A card into this laptop nd see if I can connect with the Centrino chipset.

to re-host in RR, you have to go to the home screen on your psp, then switch the adhoc channel. go back to RR and you can host again Smile
