Wifi status?

[Vasco Névoa]

Hello all.

Last time I checked, wifi was a little flaky in GTA02. Werner was  
working on it, trying to find the root cause for instability and  
difficulty with connection.
But there were also problems with WPA, I think.

My question is: what is the current status of wifi? Is there a "known  
good" kernel that works for sure under a majority of use cases,  and  
if so which distros are carrying it? And what are the limitations?

Thanks people.
Cheers,
V.
