Would like a low profile one.  Dual or single band is ok.  Preferably something that'll be relatively plug and play with Linux Lite.

Try this. It es Raspberry Pi 2 compatible. Should work on Lite.

It's 10€ in Germany but I couldn't find it on amazon US.

Rosewell's are well supported (they use Realtek chipsets)

just make sure the one you choose actually mentions the Linux kernel version eg. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.as...6833166056

TP-LINK TL-WN822N Wireless N300 High Gain USB Adapter, 300Mbps, Dual 3dBi External Antennas, WPS Button, Support Windows XP/Vista/7/8

which has a 4.9 ft wire.  And you can extend using an USB to USB cable.  Useful if you need high power and extension to find weak wifi signals.
