The Buffalo AirStation WLI-PCM-L11GP is the card I use and would
_highly_ suggest.

One (fairly large) correction on my previous statement:

They will not work with 128-bit (i.e. 104-bit) WEP. The _will_,
however, still work with 64-bit (i.e. 40-bit) WEP.

I rarely see anyone supporting 40-bit WEP these days if they're going
to require encryption. It'll work for home, but most wireless hot
spots and businesses which use WEP encryption now require 104-bit WEP.

... if only I could get my foot the rest of the way out of my mouth. :)
