LEAP is an 802.1x authentication protocol. For LEAP support the client
card firmware and the client card NDIS5 driver must support 802.1x. The
Microsoft URL below lists clients that support 802.1x.

With LEAP supplicant software from Funk or Meetinghouse cards with
802.1x support are LEAP capable.
I have found out that all the Atheros OEM cards have firmware and NDIS
drivers that support 802.1x. So, all 11a clients and all 11a/11b combo
clients support 802.1x. I also tested D-Link 650+ (card bus 2.4GHz
22Mbps). It works fine.
There are cards like the ORiNOCO that did not have 802.1x support but
now can be upgraded with firmware and driver to support 802.1x.
The issue is not the card, but the firmware on the card and the NIDIS
driver having 802.1x support.
There is support on Linksys, Buffalo, Symbol, Intel and others but the
versions of firmware and driver define if they are LEAP capable.
