It's my semiconductor dealer, so I'll order an USB stick there, because I already have to order some other electronic stuff.
the TP-LINK ones have an atheros chipset that works well with ath9k_htc driver, and can be used as an accesspoint. that page shows the 727 version, i have the 722 with an external antenna [1], which i recently replaced by the 822 [2] since it's 300Mbit, and because i can place it better (accesspoint). both work very well. i believe some of the units on that page also use atheros chips -- any of the atheros N chips *should* work well -- look here: http://www.wikidevi.com/wiki/Special:BrowseData/Wireless_adapter the 722 uses an AR9271, the 822 uses AR7010 [USB] + AR9287 [WiFi]. many other brands use the same underlying chipset ... ultimately you have to figure out what's inside before you buy.
