Help for desktop computer: Wireless card!

Zastrus · 11-16-2006, 05:39 AM

I've gone through a few wireless cards, D-Link, Netgear.

I bought a Netgear wireless card because we have a Netgear router and I thought they'd be nicely compatible... but I believe my computer hates Netgear, that or Netgear just screws with my computer as it gives a nicely colored BSOD every so often.

I have an ASUS M2N-E mobo, and I use a wireless card because the computer with the wireless router is across the room and there really is no way to run a cable across the room, etc.

Can anyone give any reliable wireless card names? I've seen Lynksys around, is that one any good?

Or any other reliable brands?

I have a Netgear card, and it works great

Linksys is good, I have a lot of friends with their equipment.
