Wireless PCI

I need one ASAP. Anyone have experience with the D-Link DWL-AG530? Is it reliable? It's the only removable-antennae model i could find.

no idea but you can check the user rating / review at newegg.com

I've got a D-Link 520+ (802.11b) and a D-Link G510 (802.11b/g), plus a D-Link PCICM (?) (802.11a/b/g) for my Laptop, they all work great.

Never had any issues.

Here's a link to the same adapter at NewEgg:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16833127136


It's only $66 dollars including shipping at NewEgg compared to $89.99 at Future Shop before tax/shipping, and it's completely sold out at Future Shop right now anyway.


If you don't need A/B/G functionality, here are some very inexpensive B/G adapters with removable antennas that have decent reviews at NewEgg:

XTERASYS XN-2523G - $25.68 shipped
EDIMAX EW-7128G - $32.50 shipped

Newegg doesn't ship to Canada. Futureshop is a store in Canada, and the stores have them in stock.

Fair enough. There are only a few reviews posted on FutureShop's site and only nine on NewEgg. The reviews on FutureShop's site are less than complimentary but the ones on NewEgg are quite decent: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16833127136.

I don't have any experience with that adapter myself, but it seems to be a decent product.
