There's just one brand of Wifi that's crap under linux and that's broadcom. Are you telling me you can't find an Intel wireless module anywhere?

Also, if you use a modern distro instead of, say, gentoo, you don't have to compile anything yourself, there's packages and dkms available if you really have to go with broadcom. Do you not install drivers on Windows?

Indeed I bought a while ago one of those pci-e cards that comes with the same BT/wireless that Apple uses, it wasn't that hard to make it work but if it works out of the box, then better, also I think the intel wireless chips are one of the best ones out there.

All of the models I was looking into were Intel based - but I could't find any info if they are actually supported/tested - and just threads people complaining they can't get them to work on their distro or can't get BT to work.
