   @deavmi when looking for wifi cards see if you can get ones which have open source drivers. Typically Atheros.

     @deavmi ok, just to give an idea of what sort of thing to get, otherwise you'll be spending time trying to get proprietary wifi to work

     @deavmi If you can find the chipset number you can confirm whether there's an open source driver, although that can be difficult

     @deavmi you could get one and try it. If it works then order more.
