I use a D-Link DI-624C and it seems to work flawlessly with LINUX, 
Windows 98 and Windows XP.

I have had virtually no problems with it (except when I forget the 
password!).

This is a couple of years old, so am not sure if it is still available, 
but I imagine the newer equivalent models would work equally well.  It 
was not very expensive, if I remember correctly.
