I got a buddy and hes getting rid of his 802.11B router setup WIRELESS and upgrading to a G setup...

its the Router, PCI card for a PC, a USB card for another PC, and then a .. Card for a Laptop..

Im going to be getting this for 40 bucks... is that a decent price?

all of the setup is NETGEAR, thats pretty much all he told me.

he said when he bought it the router alone was 100 dollars :/ that it was the top of the line at the time.

Any idea if i should go for a little lower price?

and also... are there "networking kits" that include 2 PCI cards so i dont have to piece it together if I did want to upgrade to a G router etc?

thanks alot guys appreciate the help
 
I am assuming all the cards you mentioned wireless?

...sounds like a good deal to me...but please know that transfer rates with wireless-B are significantly slower that with wireless-G...but if that is a price you are willing to pay, sure...sounds good.

Well since im 56k, and im doing this just so that i can transfer files between the computers i dont think ill be let down :)

Another question i forgot... my furthest computer away from where my Router will be is around 120 feet away in a straight line. and it goes through...4 walls, Will i be fine most likely?
