Had one working with fc 2.90 as an access point. The other is working with 
Ubuntu.
You will need to install the firmware.

They're sold rebadged in Australia by Netcomm. uses prism54 driver.

dlink has a web page most easily found by google.

I gather Atheros is well-supported. Use madwifi driver (from sf.net) if it's 
not in the kernel.

Avoid TI and Broadcom. They do not help driver writers. I suggest using 
supported cards if you're buying new, ndsiwrapper only if you already have an 
unsupported card _and_ run IA32.

Google the archive.
