I don't know if the drivers for this are on the LCNC CD, but this:

https://www.thinkpenguin.com/gnu-linux/penguin-wireless-n-usb-adapter-gnu-linux-tpe-n150usb

is FSF certified under their Respect Your Freedom program (which is A
Good Thing). I'm assuming that the driver (if not already there on the
CD) should be easy(easier?) to install & get running because of its
non-proprietary nature.

That said, I love routers that can work in bridge mode! Some routers
that don't support bridge mode can be converted by installing DD_WRT,
OpenWRT, or Tomato firmware.

Thanks,
Matt
