I've just setup my Raspbmc to use wireless to reduce the cables needed to run it. I didnt find any easy guides to doing it online (probably because its so simple) so I thought I'd post one here.
I am using Raspbmc RC5 and an Edimax EW-7811UN (http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B003MTTJOY/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00). Its tiny, requires no additional software and runs with no extra power supply. Plus, its cheap, £10!
First, with a network cable plugged in, press the following:
Programs
Get More...
Network Manager
Install
You should see:
"Add-on Network Manager enabled"
Now go:
Programs
Network Manager
Add
Select you network
Type your password
OK
Now go back to the previous window with [Cancel]
Click [Status] to confirm you're connected.
Simple as that!
