As per the title, I am looking for a good reliable wifi USB dongle for my openelec media server as the current one is dying.

I don't want to have to do any major hacks to get it going, looking for something easy to setup or with native kernel support

Used an Asus USB-N13 (chipset is ST2780/ST3070) worked a treat with my AppleTV1 and Crystalbuntu, so long as your Openelec setup has GCC and the usual "developer" stuff you should be able to get it going.

Quick bit of internet trawling and here is my posting on how I got it going :-)
