I used an aue(4) device, and it worked ok, but was USB1 and thus very
slow. I'd be inclined to get a device listed in axe(4) if I were
buying something today; those seem to be USB2.
I expect that different brands with the same chipset are mostly
equivalent modulo build quality. I'd probably choose brands who have
made other things that aren't junk and fail a lot.
Some chips are better than others - read the comments in the man pages
carefully. Sorry, I don't have any recent data.
