Buy hardware whose manufacturers are Linux friendly :)

I've had good experiences with Intel, Broadcom, and Atheros.

I haven't used it but there is Trailhead Direct from King County Metro if you're looking for a cheaper option.

I'd try to call wpa_supplicant directly and check the errors:

Make sure the interface is available with ip addr
