Review on Edimax EW-7128G Wireless PCI Adapter with Turbo Mode, supporting 802.11b/g by Calvin Hodges

I don't know much about the wifi card. So I consult with my friend about all this "N series" "G series" . What is that ? He said 11G is ok for me because the data transfer rate is 54Mbps and my internet speed is only 15Mbps. That's more than enough, so why spend money on an N-Card? I have been using this card for 1 year. While it works like new. Never had any connection problems except once or twice then found out it was the Comcast cable modem I was using. Before using this card, I basically used an ethernet cable to connect to my router, thinking it would give me full speed internet access. To make this work, I bought a 50 inch cable to connect the router in the living room to the computer in the bedroom. Yes, it was uncomfortable. This 7128G card completely liberated me! and I don't even feel the difference in download speed compared to LAN connection. I don't think I'll ever use an ethernet cable again. giggle
