I have two, cardbus D-Link DWL-650+ and an internal Intel one, don't know what it is, it just works.

This USB one is well recommended: http://tinyurl.com/6gumf7

I guess I'll let it slide, as long as there's no duplicate....

I use a Gigabyte GN-WP01GS. It worked perfectly after I followed a short guide. After about a month, it wouldn't use WPA anymore. Now my network is WEP :(.

This laptop is currently on its third adapter. It came with a Broadcomm one that was nothing but pain. I replaced that with a NovaTech NV-922W (based on the Ralink chipset) that worked great for the past few years, but wouldn't play nice with WPA on my router. I've just replaced it with an Atheros AR5213 and that works really well.

All of these are mini PCI cards.
