random betrayal
New Around Here
So I am replacing a really old laptop with a new desktop build that I am currently mulling over parts for. I don't want to replace with a laptop as the laptop has not moved from the current location for 5 years.
The location of the computer is such that no network cable will be able to reach it, and there is no way to run a cable in the attic or baseboards to do so either.
I am thinking of upgrading my router to the new AC version and putting a wireless adapter
card into the new desktop as found here:

Or maybe a motherboard that has it included like this:

My question is would this be worse off than going with a powerline kit. I am planning on upgrading the router to this:

regardless so the cost of powerline vs. the adapter are about the same.
The current wireless signal in the laptop is pretty good so the connection should be adequate to get as good a throughput as possible.
Any thoughts would be appreciated
