    Good USB Wireless Adaptor?

    Can anyone recommend a reliable USB wireless adaptor?

    I've tried a couple of cheap ones that were terrible: Edimax Ew-7711utn 11n 150Mbps Mini-size Usb Adapter and a Belkin one from Currys.

    I had problems with a Netgear WG111, and read terrible reviews of the Netgear RangeMax WPN111.

    Any recommendations on one's costing c£20?

    Thanks
