I'm on Vista 64. When I had the wireless running in the original room, I was getting 4/5 bars, which I thought was pretty acceptable.
But after I moved my whole setup into the room, the best I could expect was 1 or 2 bars, and the connection was pretty unstable.
My router is on the floor below both rooms, and I tried elevating it a bit. Didn't work too well.
My router is a Linksys WRT54G. Adapter is a Linksys - Cisco (Model number - WUSB54GC).
Only reason I'm posting this is that I have a really long ethernet cord from the router downstairs hookedup.
EDIT: Oh yeah, forgot to mention I actually got one. My dad picked a USB one up, 54mb limit since my connection isn't nearly that fast anyway. I hooked it up while my PC was in one room like I said, installed the software, and worked fine. Then it didn't in another room that really was about an equal distance from the router, maybe closer.
