If it was me, I'd go for the PCI version every time. That way you don't have
to deal with USB drivers getting screwed up.
 
I have very little faith in the Windows USB subsystem and third party
drivers.

Subject: [H] Linksys wireless network adapter suggestions for a PC.



Hey, 

Someone gave me an older PC that I'm going to set up for my 11 year old.  I
currently have a network consisting of a WRT54GS (speed booster) router, a
notebook with a speedbooster network card, and another notebook with the
Intel wireless networking built in.

In looking around at adapters, I'm not sure any more what I should get for
this pc.  There is a pci version (with an antenna), a USB version that looks
like a USB drive, an external model (looks like a little box) with a USB
interface, and there is another "portable" one that is external with a USB
interface.

I'm looking for one that supports WPA2 encryption.  It does not really
matter if it's the speedbooster model or not.  

Anyone have any suggestions?  I think I want to stay with Linksys. 

Thanks, 
Bobby
