I'll second the Aironet, they have always worked great for me on Linux. Cisco even has a version of the client utilities for Linux:

I bought a Cisco Aironet 350 off ebay for about $40, and it works fine for
me.

First time poster here, but I have a quick question (survey).
I have a Linksys wireless card using the Broadcom chipset, and
unfortunately I have been having a lot of trouble trying to get it
connected with the university wireless network. Works when booting into
Windows, but not when on linux. You'd think a company that open sources
it's router hardware for linux would make a linux wireless card... Nope!
Anyway, just bought a Netgear, because some of them are known to have
the PrismGt chipset. Well, wouldn't you know it, I got one that Marvel
which also isn't supported well. FYI, I'm getting my information from here:
http://linux_wless.passys.nl/
Here's the million dollar question, what the heck are people out here
using? I don't have a CCI machine, and last time I looked into what the
bookstore sold it seemed overpriced and outdated. I'm looking to spend
around $50, but I'm willing to go higher to keep my sanity! If you have
one that works, and you don't need it any more, I'd also be interested
in buying it off you as well.
Thanks,
Brian
