Rick, will this PCI NIC be adequate for my house? It's 165ft indoor range. The router is downstairs near the front of the house, my room is upstairs towards the rear of the house, so it's about 50-55ft between the two and one level. The tech guy at Office Depot was recommending a USB since there is about 6ft of play to move it around for better use. Thing is, I want to use my USB connection for a digital camera.

Well it would be better to have the router upstairs. You can also try mounting the router upside down and as highest possible.
