Compatible Network Cards / USB adapters for PSP and Kai

Thanks go to Decepticon420 for starting this thread (based on the original thread by Yumi).

Firstly, please take the following into consideration. Your wireless network card may detect your PSP, but you STILL might not be able to play. The following list is a guide of what our users have used and confirmed working on THEIR home network - no guarantees are given it will work on yours, and there may be issues with different revisions of the cards.

This is a list on **reported** working/non-working WiFI cards!

Check if your card supports Promiscuous mode .. (needed for PSP online)

note: it has to say 'promiscuous' under the active filters ..
