FC5 Support for USB Wireless Net Adaptors?

Can someone suggest a good choice for a USB Wireless network adaptor?
I'm using Fedora Core 5. I've combed through lots of older posts on the
topic, but couldn't find anything clear.

The Xterasys XN-2122B claims to be "Linux compatible". Anyone try it?
Does it require Ndiswrapper? What are some other good choices?

Thanks.

Hawking has a USB wireless adapter with a zydas chipset supported by the
zd1211rw in-kernel (with newer kernels - 2.6.17+ iirc), but since I don't
use FC, I don't know if that's an option for you. I do know that the wifi
adapter works very well here.

I have found that Atheros chipset wireless cards work well and install
easily. I'm currently using a Dlink WNA2330 on my laptop.
