Re: Which USB wireless LAN adapter really works on Debian?
[Addendum]
FWIW (a bit of personal experience):
The Broadcom 4328 chip only works with the proprietary Broadcom driver
and exhibits occasional disconnections, so I would not recommend it.
Some older Broadcom chips/cards are reported to run fine though.
Belkins are *all* a no-no; Belkin occupies one of the leading places in
the GNU/Linux hall of shame, in that it gives no support whatsoever to
free/opensource drivers, so steer away from any Belkin you may see,
even if available gratis or in cereal boxes.
Netgear WG111v3: has a newer chipset than prior versions and will only
work in 2.6.30 kernels and newer (versions prior to v3 are said to work
fine in older kernels though).
