I want to buy a wireless adapter for my computer, preferably Linksys, since my wireless router is from Linksys.

What kind of adapter should I get?
  1. USB Wireless Adapter
  2. PCI Wireless Adapter
  3. CAT5 Wireless Adapter (This may sound odd, but see this)

Get a PCI Wireless Adapter. It is more reliable than the USB adapter.

By the way, I checked the link you've posted and I found out the it is about Gaming Adapter for game consoles.

PCI adapters are generally the best, but USB adapters with an external antenna is okay too. I am currently using a Rosewill adapter with a 5dba external antenna and it's working just as well as my old PCI adapter.

Well if you are going to have many USB things plugged in, like a USB mouse, keyboard, printer, etc. you are going to want a PCI one, because the other USB devices will interfere with the signal.

Yeah, the PCI adapter would probably be best, the usb would get in the way and is less reliable. Also the CAT5 actually IS a console adapter.
