Which wireless network adapter should I get for the d-link 655 router? I would like a non-usb adapter, if possible, so pcmcia adapter, pls?

The D-Link 655 is a 802.11n wireless router. The IEE still has yet to approve the Draft-N series. 802.11n is expected to be approved by IEEE-SA RevCom in 02.119.

Although many "Draft N" products are already available. If you plan to take advantage of the 600/Mbit speeds of 802.11n. Its best to buy the wifi card made from the same manufacturer D-Link.

Other Draft-N vendors may have a different way of implementing 802.11n and you might encounter problems. D-Link has 2 Wireless N notebook cards DWA-643 > Xtreme N Notebook ExpressCard / D-LinkShop Price: $802.117 DWA-652 > Xtreme N Notebook Adapter / D-LinkShop Price: $702.118 Since you mentioned cost is an issue. The D-Link Wireless-N cards are a bit pricey.

You can opt for any affordable Wireless-G notebook card. It would connect without problems with that D-Link 655 router. But its on a slower 54/Mbits.

D-Link makes a pcmcia so I would get one of those. They are going to be among the least expensive. amazon.com/D-Link-PCMCIA-10MBs-Combo-Dup....

D-Link 655 is a draft 2.0 802.11n AP, so to get the best speed, you would need an adapter compatible with that spec. Cheapest PCMCIA Pre-N draft 2.0 adapters start around $30. EWiz currently has one for $28.39: ewiz.com/detail.php?p=EN-PWIN&c=fr&pid=e... If you want to spend less, you can get any 802.11g adapter, it will only give you speed up to 54 mbps, but it's plenty for most applications.

Effective throughput is limited by other factors anyway and even on a true 802.11n adapter you're not likely to exceed that speed. Cheapest PCMCIA 802.11g dapters start around $10.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
