Well, for one, see what kind of PCI/PCI-e slots you have available.

But honestly, not many of us are going to have experience with a wide variety of desktop wireless adapters. Find an AC card or USB adapter with a lot of positive reviews. USB ones with internal antennas generally have shorter range, but if you are just one room away from the router, it shouldn't make any difference.

Thanks.
The Coax connection in the office is crap. So, we have to put the modem/router in another room, and I can't hard wire.
I'm just trying to acquire as much performance as I can for gaming/streaming.

I read your PC thread, but you kinda just advised us to research on our own for Ethernet/NIC.

There seems to be a lack of helpful websites on performance, compatibility, and comparisons for wireless adapters.
