New wireless network
I'm trying to set up a wireless network for a friend and was wondering if these parts are going to work:
LINKSYS WRT54GL IEEE 802.3/3u, IEEE 802.11b/g Wireless-G Broadband Router http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16833124190 GIGABYTE GN-WP01GS PCI Wireless Adapter - Retail http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16839121008 I guess the router is linux based; I'm not sure if that makes a difference. This is going in an eMachines with Windows XP. Thanks |

Would be best to match the router and adapter with the same brand. A Linksys adapter is more $ but less likely to have connection issues.

How about these two:
BUFFALO WHR-HP-G54 IEEE 802.3/3u, IEEE 802.11b/g Wireless-G MIMO Broadband Router and Access Point http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16833162134 BUFFALO WLI2-PCI-G54S 32-Bit PCI Bus Wireless-G 125 High-Speed Adapter http://www.newegg.com/product/produc...82E16833162111 twice as fast it appears. |

Well anyway, the network is up and running with a strong signal. Easy enough to set up for a first timer.
EDIT: I ended up buying the Buffalo Router and Adapter |
