About to buy a Wireless Card Need Advice w/ Poll

[gtsukada]

i'm about to buy a wireless B card from newegg, what is better usb or pci and why?

 

[JetBlack69]

The cool thing about USB is that you can move it around to get a better signal. The only bad thing is that you have yet another cord/device sticking out of your computer

Get this. You won't be disappointed. It has an external antenna.

I just switched from a USB to a PCI, get a "g" card for future upgrades...

My USB "card" was a pain & yet another wire to hassle with. I have 3 more on my home network to ugrade to a "G" card & I think they'll all be PCI.

That's cool. We got the 520+ when it was on sale at OD, and reception is very strong

The old DWL-500 sucked. I only use the CardBus controller.
