IMO, madwiki is a major player in the drivers for wireless cards.  The
driver works (according to the link below) for many cards from over 50
manufacturers:

So if this package happened to be mentioned, I don't see anything wrong
with that.

Indeed, wireless is really going to be a pain to setup in the book.  I am
not sure how one would go about doing it either right now.
