Are you talking about laptops or desktops? I have no trouble using 
Orinoco (the original WaveLan ones, not the recent re-use of the brand)
chipset PCMCIA cards under OS7.6-OS9.22.

If your laptop is a Wallstreet or later, you can use the Airport drivers,
but the generic ones can be found. The last version of the Airport drivers 
have the added bonus of automaticly upgrading your card from "silver"
(40/64 bit WEP) to "Gold" (40/64 and 128 bit WEP).

If it's a desktop, I have no idea. :-(
