I really don't know much about this. My router is up stair but i want to place my computer down stair. I will use it for gaming. It would be sweet if you could add link to help me. Thank You!
I would use a PCI or PCIe card. The antennas will be better. I have one of these: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833704162 and it is a lot better than cheaper alternatives. I was able to find a handful of wireless routers in my neighborhood I did not know existed (with a USB adapter), and the houses here are not adjacent.
