Wireless Internet Card help needed !!!!

Post by satman83 »

Hello,

I have recently moved my gaming PC upstairs and as such have discoved that my
wireless card is rubbish as it cannot connect to my router downstairs. (I know
what am doing, but the single strength is almost nothing at all and so when
it does connect there is a limited connection), as such am thinking of buying a
new wireless internet card for my PC but not sure on which one that i should go
out and get. I found this one but not sure on it.

Btw Wireless is sh*t at gaming, if you play FPS i would advise NOT to use wireless.

not true..... your card is picking up the signals your router just gives them.

and you can use wireless for gaming you just need to have a wireless n network set up (you get up to 300 mbs connection and that is more then the standard 100 mbs)

and why are we even posting in this?
