Hi,
If this is for a desktop, I might be more inclined to get a router that
can be set as a client bridge (either in default firmware, or with
dd-wrt, tomato, etc).
That way you have wired ethernet ports at the desktop location, for use
with other networked devices (Raspberry pi, printers, etc), and you
don't have to worry about a card being "linux" supported, since you will
actually be on a wired network that is wirelessly connected to the rest
of your network.
