which WIFI USB stick?

[Frank Samuelson]

You can try a stick with a Ralink chip in it.

If your kernel version < 2.6.16 you'll have to try the rt2570
driver, which sometimes works for me.
For kernel versions >=2.6.16 it will require the
rt2x00 driver.
These drivers can be found at rt2x00.serialmonkey.com
These drivers are iffy, alpha stuff, and may not work.
On the upside, the company that makes the chipsets released
the drivers GPL and they are actively being developed,
so in the near future they should just work.
