You are a lucky guy!
I just did a similiar work today.
you can buy this wlan card: asus w167g (usb)
and get driver from here:
http://rt2x00.serialmonkey.com/rt2570-cvs-daily.tar.gz (for 2.6 kernel)

untar,
edit Makefile and specify your kernel source directory,
make arm
insmod ra2570.ko
then using iwconfig to config your wlan card
done
