Whats the best wifi card to buy

Question

i have a dell inspiron 1150 and the wireless internet no longer works unless i am 10 feet from the router. I used to get 40-50 feet through buildings but now it wont even pickup through the walls. I was thinking the only thing to do would be to buy another wireless card so i can pickup faster and farther signals.

I have tried replacing the drivers, and i have another wireless card that is exactly the same and i have tried that. I have also tried different antennas, the same type (i have parts from a duplicate computer). Is buying a card the best thing to do? if not what should i do?

Answer 1

buy a wireless repeater instead ;) linksys would be ok for soho, home use
