Looking for cheap Wireless PCI Card that does not use ath9k driver

Good morning,

I bought 2 x TP-LINK TL-WN851ND for my computer with ArchLinux and my Debian server. Unfortunately, when I use them, both computer completely freezes. I tried wireless compat, I tried an Ubuntu Live CD and nothing worked.

I filled in a bug report here but nothing useful so far : https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42903

I really need one wireless card for my Arch computer, a very cheap one is okay. I can wait a solution for the TP-LINK and ath9k but I need WiFi, even if it is a bad quality since it is temporary (I hope).

The card must be cheap, PCI card, must have kernel drivers that aren't ath9k*, supports b/g/n, WPA, 100mbits (I can go lower of course but it would be great if 100mbits could be reached), available on Amazon.de or another online shop in Germany.

Does someone know a wireless pci card that can match what I need ?

Thanks.
