ralink rt2500. Driver isn't in the kernel yet though.

OpenBSD have a list of drivers that are good. Intel are okay, but not 
great (something to do with redistribution rights).

quote:
Want to help us? Avoid Intel Centrino, Broadcom, TI, or Connexant 
PrismGT chipsets. Heck, avoid buying even regular old pre-G Prism 
products, to send a message. If you can, buy 802.11 products using chips 
by Realtek, Ralink, Atmel, ADMTek, Atheros. Our manual pages attempt to 
explain which vendors (ie. D-Link) box which chipsets into which product.
