I finally got my Raspberry Pi, a $35 computer with 512MB ram: http://www.raspberrypi.org
After installing raspbian on it (http://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads), I had to prepare drivers for my USB wireless adapter, D-Link DWA-140 with hardware revision B3.
These are the steps I made

Please input your name and your email address, and save the archive. Next, unpack it:

These are the steps I made
- Install the raspbian on the SD card, boot Linux, and connect to the Internet using Ethernet
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade -yWait a very long time until this finishes, and then reboot:
sudo rebootAfter reboot
sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers -yThen go to the RaLink website (link found at http://wikidevi.com/wiki/D-Link_DWA-140_rev_B3 and https://help.ubuntu.com/community/WifiDocs/Device/Tenda_W311M)

Please input your name and your email address, and save the archive. Next, unpack it:
tar xf DPO_RT5572*
cd DPO_RT5572*Change config to support WPA and WPA2
$ gedit os/linux/config.mkTo build the driver, I had to make a link to the kernel headers:HAS_WPA_SUPPLICANT=y
(was "n")HAS_NATIVE_WPA_SUPPLICANT_SUPPORT=y
(was "n")
sudo ln -s /usr/src/linux-headers-3.2.0-3-rpi /lib/modules/3.2.27+/buildNow, build:
makeThis will take some time, and finally give an error about not being able to copy to /tftpboot, which you can ignore. Next, install:
make installAnd this should be all.
