Avoid newer Atheros 802.11ac chipsets as I believe they are (for now) dependent on non-free firmware. Note: there not yet out- but there coming. We have to be careful not to make the claim all atheros chipsets are free software friendly. Even specifying wifi is wrong. There are bluetooth/wifi combo cards with non-free firmware on the bluetooth portion. Something I'd like to get atheros to work with us on although... it's a future project. There is too much going on at the moment for me to deal with that particular issue.
