What Kevin says is good and system76.com uses Intel wifi cards.  Now sure about USB options I use Linksys PCI or PCIe in desktop rigs and it works.

Ok, I give up. I am getting ready to build a PC around ubuntu linux.  I have been testing wireless nic cards on my existing ubuntu computer and nothing works.
I go to the Internet   and there are many many cards that indicate they will work with ubuntu  but  not for me.

If you are running a wireless  rig  with ubuntu would you please share the name and model of your wireless card.

This computer I am building has to work wirelessly or my alternative is "something  7" which I do not want to spend good money on.

I really appreciate any information on what you are using.

Thanks
