Hey everyone

I was just wondering if i'm right in thinking a network card (WiFi) is to boost your connection between your pc and you modem or is it meant to be its own modem i'm just checking 

cheers

i think this is just a wireless card to get the best connection hook your pc up with a Ethernet cord. it will have a spot on the motherboard. i'm not to knowable in wireless but, i know to get the best wireless connection you need a decent router and wireless card. it also depends on how far and the placement of the router. your isp will have the biggest effect followed by the router  than your wireless card. there are also several type of bandwidths they use (g/n/ect).
