Wireless Adaptor

Hi guys my parents have Linksys wireless router which works fine with their laptop but they want to connect their desktop to the network (wirelessly) there is no wireless network card installed on their desktop so will have to get a wireless adaptor. and they were looking at this product:-
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Belkin-802-1.../dp/B0006374PK
Has anyone used this or can anyone recomend another wireless adaptor??
Or I have just found this one
Its cheaper and better reviews:-

Thanks

Re: Wireless Adaptor

Or get a wireless bridge. They are a tad more pricy but no need to install, no drivers and can use with a switch to create more than one wireless point.

May also be called a Gaming adaptor.

Re: Wireless Adaptor

my main advice is DO NOT GET USB wireless cards. not as reliable as a PCI card.

this would be alot better
