I don't have my wireless network up yet, but it is my understanding that
some of the cheap Taiwanese cards have pretty good support, at least in
OpenBSD.  Apparently the manufacturers are eager for anybody to adopt
their cards so they're handing out specs like candy.

The cheaper wireless cards at Digilink used to fall into this category.
