I used this:

http://www.amazon.com/Edimax-EW-7811Un-150Mbps-Raspberry-Supports/dp/B003MTTJOY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1435254923&sr=8-1&keywords=edimax+7811&pebp=1435254904030&perid=088Y6QKZJBBRRMCCMCBS

on my RPi/1 being used as a gate opener. Very commonly recommended with 
the Raspberry Pi. And, Yes, yet another +$10.

The whole $30 thing is a bit disingenuous once you start building 
towards a working device. Whatever your goal is.
