Hello all. I'm building a PC soon, and am trying to find the longest range wifi adapter I can. Interface doesn't matter, just whichever will work best. The connection I will need to connect to is an 802.11g connection. It's nearby, but not extremely so. I get a connection on my laptop on the second floor of my house in front of a window (1-2 bars.) My room (Where my PC will be.) Is, however, downstairs, and doesn't have any windows etc. I can occasionally get a one bar signal, but usually lose it in a few seconds.
I'm fairly certain the issue is not only range, but the walls blocking the signal. So I need a good range adapter, that works well even through walls.
I've been looking at some Alfa brand USB adapters, and Ampedwireless. Both claim good speeds and great range, but I just want to know if anyone has better suggestions.
My price range is $50, although I may be able to go up to $100.
Any suggestions are appreciated, thank you!
