How much better are internal wireless adapter compared to the external USB ones?

I have two computer in lan at my house and one of them can barely get 1/10 of the normal internet speed while the other works just fine
the router is about 10 meters away separated by 15 cm of wall

pic related it's my current wireless adapter
do you think my problem could be solved by buying a quality internal wireless adapter?

use an erfnet cord. the only reason to ever bother with a USB wireless POS is for wiresharking near a starbucks and hoping to snag a credit card or two.

Wireless internet is shit. Use a cable. You can't? Wrong, I'm sure you can.

If it's only 10m away and it's a 15cm wall why don't you just drill through the wall and put a cable through

pffhahahaha

Cable is cheap and works so much better than wireless. Wireless is only good if you can not run a cable for some reason. Fifty feet of ethernet cable can be had for under $5.00.

solution 1: have the cable go under the door, as in the small gap beneath the door and above the floor.

solution 2: HAVE THE DOORS OPEN

rocket science, people. c'mon.

Yes OP those work.

You'll get HORRIFYING reception on them though unless you're literally 2 feet away from your router. Or maybe my router just sucks. Try to get an N adapter instead of a G. G's are super cheap and it's what I got but it's trash. There's a funny solution though. Tape a CD to it and make it face the direction of your router. Aluminium foil works too but a CD is an easier solution. Watch your reception stabilize and improve greatly.

I feel ya OP. Apparently I live in too rural of an area to get cable internet so I have to use a 3G wifi USB card. It's funny because I'm just like 10 minutes outside the city

Hahaha, you faggots, complaining about your wireless LAN acting up!

I have an actual wireless ISP! It's WiFi from 15 miles away, with a really big antenna that's sticks 30 feet in the air.

You people and your simple problems.

Yes. This might be news to you, but wlan sucks. Big time. People use it when cable isn't an option, and only then.

>> No.9235653

>>9235545
Maybe your cable was a piece of shit, or maybe there was a lot of interference where you were passing it through.
