Try to find one with a well-supported Wifi chipset, and ideally one that
doesn't need to jump through hoops like ndiswrapper.  I haven't tried too
many, but my Intel 3945 seems to work quite well with WPA2/PSK (I
wouldn't settle for anything less these days ... the other day I saw guys
with a laptop parked outside my flat :D)

Get yourself there? :)
