Stay away from Belkin. 
Apparently they are using several different versions of the Broadcom chip, 
and ndisdriver does not work with all of them. 

I can't recommend one since I now have a builtin. 
Note that the Broadcom chips are currently very popular, but the native 
Linux driver is not soup yet, so you would need to use the Windows driver 
with ndiswrapper.
