I hope I spelled it right, but which wireless card is better for a laptop?
-
Atheros. But intel is usually not to bad, its cheaper to atheros can be spendy.
-
I have an Atheros, and its just awesome. I've never tried Intel, although it can't be bad
-
Get the Atheros. Intel wireless cards suck. At least my Intel 2200b/g does. My connection will just randomly drop out on me. I have tried all of the drivers but none of them helped. Bad Intel.

cool thanks. but what about compared to an intel a/b/g ?
-
i agree with timu24, my intel pro card just drops the connection inexplicably, and doesn't work at all when i'm using the battery. The atheros cant be as bad...
-
Even the new intel pro 3945 cards have connection problems? This could be a problem...
-
I never had any problems with my intel 3945abg dropping out, but I did find that when i upgraded to the Atheros AR5006EX-based card I had a stronger signal and detected more networks from my apartment.

I have a similar question comparing wireless cards (mini PCI) with the
Texas Instruments chip TNETW1130 inside to the recent Intel wireless cards.
Someone has idea what is "better"?
I tried to google it out without much success.
