What to do? (Wireless N)

Hello!
So I own the WRT310 from lynksys.
I love it, never no problems with it.

So it's really not about that. (Though, I now know of the WRT600N, is it really worth the upgrade?)

Now it's really about my wireless.
My Main PC is wired (Well will be soon)
but I am wondering about my laptop.
I just now found out it has a WiFi Link 4965 AGN which has Draft N. (And 2.4/5.0 ghz freq.)
Should I not worry about upgrading this?
As I have a brand new in box WUSB300N and am wondering would this be better then what is built in?
 
Honestly, I wouldn't worry about it and just use the internal card. 802.11 "pre" N wireless cards and routers aren't necessarily compatible unless they are made by the same manufacturer. You can get benefits from increased range but there is no guarantee you'll see any faster transfer speeds if both devices aren't from the same vendor. Not untill all this crap is ratified anyway . . . .
 
Aight.
I guess i'll just keep the USB Wireless N Adapter however.
Could be useful in the future for any type of Wireless version.

I am guessing it'll be a good 2 years before N is stable huh?

You know, when I first bought into N, I never knew it was in like a "Beta" stage, otherwise i'd have steared clear from it.

But it is nice for range however.
Hell the Linksys Wireless G with Speedbooster didn't do squat, compared to what my N can do.
