Does anybody have either of these wireless cards?

[johnnqq]

i'm going to order one of these cards because they're: A. cheap, B. the only cards for $20 that have an external antenna.

is one of the cards better than the other? i need it to reach 100-200 ft outside through 2 walls...i know a basic laptop wirelss card can reach the signal point, but can one of these cards?
is one company more reputable than the other?

i need all the info i can get, even if it's a little tidbit! thank you in advance!

I haven't even heard of those. Why don't you go with Linksys, Netgear or Belkin?

I use Airlink+ wireless card and it is cheap...bought for 10 bucks and it rocks!!!!

none of them cost $20 and have that kind of antenna...i COULD buy one and stick one of those antennae on, but the antenna at cheapest costs like 10-15. so 40+10-20= more than one of those.

I have a couple of these. They're great.

I guess all of my recommendations drove them up $3 too. 😛

The chipset on the JAHT card is pretty good (I think it's the same one as on the card I linked to). Not sure about the brand though.

I've got 5 of those in client's PC, and they work great.

for those 2 wireless cards:
how far away is the router from the comptuer?
are the reviews accurate?

I didn't read the reviews for the one I have. The AP is one floor above. I think I had it workin two floors away too.
