I picked up a TRENDnet TEW-654TR from amazon.  Works well for me.

Thanks for your feedback

How far is it from your Main Router.
I guess It's just plug and Play ?

Not exactly plug and play,  but set up was easy following the CD directions.

It is in a cabinet (on the other side of a wall) about 30' from my router.

Yes, I'm in Whitby (just East of Toronto).

I love Montreal; Suite 88 on St Denis is my favorite chocolate shop :)

If you have an old wireless router lying around you may be able turn into into a wireless adapter by flashing it with open source firmware, i.e. DD-WRT or Tomato.

I did it to an old Linksys router to connect an HDTV to my home network. Worked great albeit a bit overkill but it cost zero dollars.

I use MPod on my iPhone, GNOME on my laptop, and can use Bryston's Mini/Max through a browser; all at the same time :)

I'm with Bell as well and other than getting the security code entered properly, I had no issues.
