Sounds pretty awesome! I wish I had a laptop with wireless internet on it. That would be so fun. Good luck with it. ;)

Well you bought it before we were actuaklly good friends. When it fry's after 2 weeks of use I'll still say I told you so though:p

Yeah it was a $400 voodoo lol!

Oh, and having a wireless comp actually sux! It's dang hard to keep everything together! Heck it's nearly impossible to get it up! I hope the laptop is better than the desktop on wireless, cause it gives out a lot and stuff, I am hoping it's the adapters or something though and the lappy will work fine. So don't wish you had wireless, wish you had wireless with the ease of wired. Take my word for it, I may need to buy a signal booster for the lappy if the signal sux too bad:(

What environment do you live in?

With your wireless troubles i'd blame it your device. Try to avoid usb devices at all cost, especially those that need to be constantly connected and active....
At school if i'm not in my room my laptop uses the wireless internet. And it always just works.
Here at home I also am using the internet with my wireless card. Right now as we speak I am resting on the sofa with the laptop ontop of a pillow and writing this response.
Once configured properly, wireless are a wonderful piece of hardware.

Yeah, I know, but I think it's these **** USB adapters. I mean the AC and router ar ein the other room like 10 ft. away from the adapter:mad: Would a PCI wireless card be a better choice? Maybe I can get one of those? Also I can't config the router due to my other PC being down:( And it used to work flawlessly but I think my brothers(who have no regard of technology like flimsy USB adapters) sort of messed up the adapters antenna. Now it goes off randomly:( Maybe a laptop adapter will be a lot better though. Maybe a PCI card would fix it. If so it might solve the problems my Grandma is having with the exact same adapters and AC/router. I may suggest to her to get a PCI card. Cause otherwise she's gonna have to go wired:( Although my PC is wired and I never have problems with it, unless I kill the system by OC'ing it:p I hope it works flawlessly on my lappy:)
