<0> i just bought an Asus P5B motherboard
<0> but haven't decided which video card to go with
<1> what game do you want to play?
<0> World of Warcraft, Rainbow Six Las Vegas. anything current
<1> what's the most money you want to spend?
<2> do you know anything i can buy to boost my wireless singal???
<0> no more than $300
<1> yes, wireless access point
<2> what is that
<0> Trendgree, i think Linksys make a few access point boosters
<2> NO I need something like from my laptop
<0> however, you can buy the Wireless 5.4Ghz G wireless
<1> canada or US?
<2> to be able to pick up a single
<2> singal
<0> Trend, i recommend going with Wireless G and using a 5.4Ghz PCMCIA card
<2> i have intel wirelesss now
<2> on my laptop
<3> you can get some bad*** **** for like 300$
<2> what do you mean bad *** ?
<0> Trend. thats the problem. the internal Intel wireless cards are crap
<3> or relatively bad***. hehe
<2> so i can pick up other signals
<0> Clocker. i'm in the US
<3> im talking about the videocard question.
<2> so id have to use pcmia
<2> where can i buy one of those and how much
<2> you think walmart sells what i need ?
<0> meel, i was looking at the ATI X1950 XTX 512mb today at Bestbuy. it was going for $420
<0> way too much for a video card i think
<3> get a 256meg version
<3> for under 300
<2> someone help me
<4> walmart sells DVDs for $15 - thats what I need
<0> does the extra 512mb help you?
<0> i mean the extra 256mb
<2> can someone please help me
<5> naiwister, canada or us?
<0> US
<3> well of course it would, but you arent going to find excellent performance coupled with 512meg of ram at under 300.
<0> CLocker. i'll be right back. i'm actually on my laptop right now taking a crap in the bathroom
<3> you're going to have to trade off one way or the other.
<0> now i'm about to take a quick shower
<0> brb...
<2> can someone please help me
<3> christ, shut up Trendgree
<2> i just asked a question
<2> i need some f ing help over here
<3> begging over and over again is a sure fire way to not get helped.
<2> ok
<2> sorry
<2> im in a rush
<3> find an external antenna online.
<3> there.
<5> naiwister, what resolution?
<5> 1280x1024?
<5> or 1600+?
<2> do they have external antennas at walmart ?
<2> or radioshack
<3> most likely not.
<5> best buy, circuit city
<5> unfortunately larger antennas and waps are usually not sale priced items
<2> show me where i can buy
<2> please clocker
<2> buddy ol pal
<5> lol
<5> what kind of router u got?
<2> none
<3> ...
<2> i just have a nice aprt complex
<5> oh, then you just need a router?
<3> hes trying to steal someone elses signal. what an ***hole.
<2> i just need a f ing stronger thing to put on my laptop
<3> no wonder he just wants better reception.
<2> to get a stonger singnal
<5> ah
<2> no IM NOT!
<2> NO! im not
<3> sure.
<2> i have a big aprt complex and my wirless
<2> is down stair
<2> s
<2> its linksys
<2> right now im hardwired
<2> if i go wireless it cuts out
<3> you just said you didnt have a router
<2> i have a hub
<2> i think its a wireless hub
<3> ...
<2> i hook into my cable modem
<5> i dont believe i've seen linksys wireless hubs
<3> heh
<3> im putting him on ignore.
<2> anyways what can i get to pick up stonger singal from lappy
<2> what did i ****in do meelk
<2> you freak
<5> with linksys, u can try and update the firmware
<0> clocker. 1600x1200
<5> by default, linksys routers only broadcast at 50%
<2> do they sell antennas for lappys
<2> external
<0> thats the max res from my LCD
<5> ok naiwister, then you'll probably need a 512MB card
<0> yeah
<2> clock ?
<5> it's kinda balance tho
<2> do they sell antennas for lappys ?
<2> where can i buy
<5> i'd say go with 256 actually and a faster gpu
<5> look for a radeon x1950xt
<0> hmm
<2> clocker you still around ?
<5> yes
<2> where can i buy a good external atenna
<2> for my laptop
<5> i wouldnt get an antenna
<5> i would get a wap
<2> which is ?
<5> its' like another router except it just repeats the signal
<2> do i put it on my laptop ?
<5> no
<5> you know how cell phone towers work?
<2> yes
<2> but okay
<5> same network just repeated
<5> so it'll extend the size of the range
<2> what if i want to go around my office
<2> is there something i can put on my laptop
<6> a 'router' is a wap, with specific layer 3 routing built in
<5> well, it would pickup the signal from downstairs and reamp it
<2> to pick up singals
<2> better
<5> idle then it's not a wap :)
<2> would i need an external ateennna ?
<6> Clocker99: uh...
<5> it has wap functionality
<2> clocker ?
<6> you are describing a repeator
<5> but thats all a wap has
<6> not a wap
<5> yes it is
<5> a wireless repeater is a wap
<2> okay
<2> can someone answer my question
<6> no, its not actually
<6> Wireless Access Point
<2> stop arguing please it reminds me of when my mom n dad would fight
<6> provides access to the network...
<5> thats cuz idle always has to have his two cents
<2> idle, what can i get to boost my laptop
<2> for picking up better signals
