Linksys is a good brand to stick with. The signal should go about 300 Ft with out obstruction. If his house is mad of wood, there should be no problems. If the walls are concrete or stucco then the signal wont be able to penetrate it.
Also, the USB adaptors are bad news. They drop signal, and a lot of time dont even find the signal. It has something to do with the USB updating itself. ANYWAY, if you can stay away from USB I would highly recomend it.
The network card should remain linksys, and get anyone that is wireless G..
