If you are looking for something that works well with any platform
(provided there is wireless nearby), you might look at a (non-usb)
wifi to ethernet bridge. It basically takes a wireless and bridges it
to regular ethernet. So you plug it in, plug an ethernet cable into
it from your computer and if there is a non-protected  accesspoint
you should be good to go. It works well, but you still have to have a
regular wireless signal nearby.

You might get a few hundred feet out of it, but don't expect miracles.
