It is somewhat difficult to recommend a card, since a manufacturer can change the chipset without notifying the customer. That is, a friend can have a wireless adapter that uses the chipset, but the version you buy a year later may use a different chipset. FWIW, I have an old Netgear WG511 (cardbus/PCMCIA) that uses the Atheros chipset. Although I am no fan of Netgear, that is one example. You can also check the user comments for any card that looks interesting to you at places like newegg and see if some Linux users have worked with a particular card.
