Hi!
I have bought a 802.11g wireless router. Now, I have to buy a wireless adapter. The computer that will use this adapter is fix computer (not a laptop). What wireless adapter do you suggest me? I heard that LinkSys and 3Com products were efficient devices. Do you have any suggestion?
Because the computer is fix, the adapter can be bigger than a "USB key" and can connect to the computer with an ethernet cable or USB cable.

I recently upgraded my wireless from 802.11b to 802.11g and needed new wireless adapters. I purchased this one because of its good reviews and low price:
I did not use the driver on the CD. I downloaded the latest driver from the company's web site and this device works great!

Thank you for your comments.
steigrafx, very interesting...
Does anybody know about NetGear or TrendNet? There are many on ebay... Do these companies have good reputation?

Netgear wifi stuff sucks in my experience. No experience with Trendnet networking hardware. My trendnet KVM works great, but that's not telling you anything...
