And does this card works well with BT2 and or auditor? I think the major concern here is to not have to buy 3-4 cards 
but to have atleast 1 or 2 that can play nice with most of the pen-test live cd's or installs.

I would like to do some testing with various wifi encryption methods and would like to narrow down the search for a few 
reliable cards.

I use a Ubiquiti SWX-SRC 300mW 802.11a/b/g MMCX here. No internal 
antenna. Two external antenna ports.

what is the best wireless card to use with backtrack v.2?

Can I use backtrack on a wireless network with RADIUS (i.e., using a
certificate)?
