Take a look at Thinstation. It has great wireless support, and can easily be installed to a HD, CD or flash device for booting locally. You can even setup Thinstation to automatically check for updates: if a new image is found, it will download it and install it on the next boot (or better yet, configure it to reboot on its own, so the whole thing is completely automated!!). BTW, I recently created a ndiswrapper package for Thinstation as part of a project for a client. I haven't released the package to the pulic yet, but will soon (wpa_supplicant is a little busted when used in conjunction with ndiswrapper).
