USB WiFI solution

Hi,

I need a Wifi dongle for my home desktop. Can somebody recommend one that would work straight out of the box. Currently I have one that uses rtl8187 and it is a nightmare!!

Re: USB WiFI solution

I have Dell 1450 using prism USB (I needed one with 11a) and there are no problems with it. (Uses p54 driver) You need a firmware, though.

Be aware that I have not stress tested the adapter, as my notebook has an internal (rather bad) intel card and I yet have to buy a desktop.
