Any card the receives on the same channel as the broadcaster... A/B/G.. N if the router broadcasts on that channel, get a card the receives it..

I just got a card from Ebay, as it was 3$ cheaper than Newegg.. Shop around.

any ADSL wireless card will do.

in case u don't know: u will need a wireless modem/router and both u and ur neighbor will have to tune into the same channel. u choose the channel by connecting to the modem/router and setting the channel.

Yes any card will do as long as it matches up with the standard. Say you got a router that broadcast on the G frequency you need a G card. I would suggest you get a USB wireless card if you are not into opening up the case of your PC. I would suggest the "Linksys WUSB54GC Compact Wireless-G USB Adapter". It works with the B and G standards. I have had it for a year for both my desktops and they work without a hitch.

Another good question by [-OMEGA-]. If you are very far, you will either have limited connectivity OR the network will not be detected as it would be out of range of your wireless card.
