Thre are a lot of USB Wifi device supoorted striaght off the Kernel with Debian, but it's a case of they might have cut a few bits out or not coded them for the ARM version.

There are certainly a lot of things missing from the default kernel. iptables is one glaring omission. I hope that later releases will be more full featured, but I guess it's a trade-off between features and memory footprint.
