I've got a pretty powerful desktop with a Corei7 processor. I bought a wireless N USB dongle and of course it sucks. Almost zero connectivity. In the same room, I've got my laptop with internal wireless N and it flys--almost 3MB/sec downloads and rock solid connectivity. So the signal is there. My question is, what do I need for my desktop to pick it up properly?
My board is an Asus P6 and as far as slots go I'm only using the PCI-E for the graphics card and PCI for my X-Fi soundblaster. So I am thinking one of the big internal cards with the antennae sticking out the back should work but can anyone confirm that those cards are as good or better than what is in my laptop? Anyone want to recommend one? My router is d-link.
