I have had great luck with cards using atheros chipsets, and the madwifi 
drivers.  At home I have a Belkin WG511T and a Airlink AWLC4030 which 
have worked great.  Got the airlink one on sale at Fry's for about 8 
bucks; bought 2 of them.  Whatever you get, verify the specs for the 
particular revision of the card, as some vendors change the chipset with 
each new version.  You might consider using a site like this one:
