Does zipspeak work with whireless network cards?

[Diana Dawne]

When I had my dsl installed because I would need a router, I had someone 
come out from comp usa to hook it up for me.  I had purchased two belkin 
wireless cards, one for myself, and one for my husband's computer.  This 
"professional told me that it would not work with Linux but trust me, he 
did not know what he was doing.  Bill Acker talked him through the whole 
thing, and without Bill's help, I am certain it would not be hooked up 
at all.  but this so called pro was a rather large I think he was barley 
breathing but a real corpse!  He did not install the belkin card in my 
computer.  I have one that actually uses a cable!
