Help me pick a Wireless adapter for my work PC

At my office, we just revamped our entire network...servers, routers, wireless...the whole works. We switched our wireless connection from WEP to WPA, and the adapter my computer has been using is not WPA compatible.

I don't know the specifics, but our wireless AP is a Cisco 802.11g type.

I asked the guys who installed the system which wireless adapter I should choose. They said for what I am doing, I could simply go out and pick up a linksys adapter that does WPA and it should work.


So, what would be a good PCI or USB wireless adapter to pick in this scenario?
Any suggestions on brand/model?
is there any point in going to 802.11n draft?
Does 802.11g w/rangeboost make any difference?


I am in a separate building (next door) from the AP, if that makes a difference.
