Wi-Fi Solutions

Hi,

I wanted to get a Wi-Fi soluton to allow me to connect with laptop upto 3 miles from Access Point, still I have not yet purchased Access Point, but I know it will need an external antenna but that's as far as I got.

One more thing I also need it to be as cheap as possible. I was looking at the Linksys routers/AP.

If anybody have any advice?, its urgent

Which is the latest Wi-Fi Adapters. I think that it is 11Mbps 802.11b Wireless Adapter. The Wireless G operates on 2.4GHz and runs at 54Mbps compare to double then 802.11 VPN router. Actually we can’t get these speeds. It runs on 20-25 Mbps comparatively 802.11 runs on 4-5Mbps currently.
Tell me which adapter uses such type of technology?

[stella]

The Linksys wireless digital media adapter and D-Link DI-624 AirPlus Xtreme G uses 802.b technology and they performs quiet good on that.
