Best Wireless card?

[shamrock1313]

What is the best wirelees card? Just ingeneral, that can pick up ANY signal within range and actually keep it without disconnecting after a couple of hours. I mean it doesn't have to be a special brand that works with any special router. Like a Netgear or a Linksys. I am talking about every brand like Gigabyte, MSI, etc. Anything will work like I have been saying.

I just need it to keep a connection at all times. Thanks for the help guys.

pcmcia(laptop card) or pci(desktop card)?

Desktop card. I also want to buy a new router.

Also, how are the PCI cards compared to the usb adapters?

Dont buy USB wireless, if anything get PCI for desktop or a pcmcia card for laptop.

Whats wrong wtih usb wireless adapters? I am the tech for a wireless dorm and 80% of the students use them. They can be moved around to get the best signal strength and work just as good as pci cards which are often shoved under a desk and don't work.
