[wplug] PCI or USB Wireless card recommendations?

[bgtrio at yahoo.com]

I've just set up a new machine.  I did the cd-to-hard-disk install from a 
Knoppix cd, and it's beautiful :) 

Now I want to move it to the basement and not run cables all the way 
downstairs.  I want to find a wireless PCI adapter that will, to the 
greatest extent possible, "Just Work"(TM).  I've got a pcmcia card for my 
redhat laptop that works just fine, but the first PCI wireless nic I tried 
(SMC2602W) is turning out to be more trouble than it's worth to get 
working.

So mainly I'm looking for a recommendation- has anyone got a good card to 
recommend?  A usb adapter would be fine too.  I'm running a 2.4.20 kernel 
as of now.

ps- as an aside, does Knoppix (and by extension perhaps, debian) have an 
analog to redhat's Kudzu utility for hardware detection and configuration?
