The built-in Broadcom Wi-Fi (and Bluetooth too) is working (now) out of
the box on the first boot. I have found it to be reliable. One person
has reported issues, but that is more likely to be his router, or
compatibility with his router than a reflection of the quality of the
on-board wi-fi. There will be a web interface to configure the built-in
wlan interface. JS has said that the card/dongle he is recommending has
a built-in web server for configuration, so no additional work needs to
be done for that anyway. My opinion is that if you need wi-fi and don't
need the extra functionality provided by JS's preferred solution, buy
the dual proc Wandboard and use the on-board wi-fi.
