These are cards supported by the prism54 driver provided out-of-the-box 
with FC2 (so to speak):

http://prism54.org/supported_cards.php

Note that there was a review by CNET in May '03 which identified the 
Netgear WG511 and SMC2835W as having the best range/throughput at that 
time.

The Netgear WG511 has a 3 year warrantee and can be purchased from 
zipzoomfly.com for $43.50 (less a $10 rebate if purchased before 9/30).
