Both devices are USB 2.0 I should have read more carefuly. It will still be of interest to see what people are using.

Hi all,
I'm looking to connect an older (USB 1.1, Athlon-based) PC to my home WLAN via a USB wireless adapter. Any recommendations for an adapter that is currently for sale/commonplace (and, of course, cheap) and works well with SuSE, Ubuntu, Fedora, etc. (and ideally also with Windows in case it's needed)?
I'd ideally like it to support at least 802.11g (the current network is 802.11g, so it would need to work well on an 802.11g network).
I just bought one of these of the shelf USB Wireless Stick at best buy. It worked out of the box on my Fedora 8 install, and has the bonus of a removable antennae so I built a home made antenna to go with it.
