The most critised thing about Linux is the limited driver support Linux has for WiFi cards. To face this critisim the Madwifi project was created. Madwifi build custom WiFi drivers for linux and so far they have covered dozens of cards. I had a very strange problem with Ubuntu and many other poplular distros where they would detect my WiFi card, yet my WiFi did not work. But i installed the Madwifi drivers and everything worked fine.
