Anything Intel based, or so, please take a look at documentation here. I say Intel, since they released open source drivers for pretty much everything.

My HP dv2000 laptop has a

Code:

06:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 3945ABG Network Connection

straight from lspci, and it is fully supported.

Hope that helps!

I am having trouble finding where to purchase one.

Will any of the ones on newegg work? Either PCI or USB.

Look at the link in my last post and compare the one's on newegg to that. 3com or Linksys tend to be well supported. You have to do the legwork on it yourself though!
