What wireless card for a desktop PC (in Germany)

Hey there,


I find cables to be far superior of course, but the network situation in my house has changed and I need wireless for my desktop now. I know there are lists for what is compatible with Linux, but those are usually old and you can never buy the old stuff. Also, the card has to be able to handle my 32mbit internet connection. So, do you know any good PCI (or whatever) wireless card that works like a charm with Linux?

There are plenty of Atheros cards around that are supported by the ath9k driver.

Thanks for the reply! smile
However, it brings me to the problem that I can't find any Ahteros cards in numerous online stores. I looked what other cards work with ath9k and I also can't find any of them in stores.
