Its a huge pia to get going but works well when you do get it going. The main problem is that many of the manufactures hide the driver in an .exe file so getting the actual driver .inf file can be a real challenge. Fortunately many Linux users have posted how tos for the various cards with links to the .inf file you may need and complete instructions on getting the card going. You will have to use a wired network connection, or be prepared to move files from one system to another via a usb stick (hard network connection is best option) but once done and running it works well.
