Some advice Please


[link to this post]
 
Going to network 2 machines at home Cat5 not option.Intending to buy Linskys WAG160N router.
My question is what is LIKELY to give the best connection speeds to the remote machine
a) A USB dongle
b) A USB connected movable aerial on a lead
c) A movable aerial on a lead connected to a dedicated PSI slot card.
The reason I ask is that Misco are bundling a,b or c with the router for the same price.

Hi, go for c) if a Wireless-N PCI Adapter, it will give the best performance.

Note: when ordering the router, Cable/DSL is for a Virgin cable service, and ADSL2+ is for the BT line service.

You may want to look at the possibility of using HomePlugs (e.g. Devolo), rather than wireless.
