Wireless Office Setup

    Hi,

    I have been tasked with setting up a wireless office, but I am a little unsure of how to approach it.

    Background: office with 7 Desktops (1 is fileserver) and 2 Laptops (with built-in wireless). The router is coming into the office at the reception area and must be available to all computers situated in the back office.

    One option is to setup a WAP in the front office, another WAP in the back office, get the two to connect and then cable-connect the machines to this one.

    Another option is to install wireless cards on all machines (my prefered option) and connect to the WAP in the front office.

    The only problem is that I dont really know of any reliable wireless cards.

    Any suggestions on good cards or alternatively on any other setup option?

    Thanks
    G

    What's the physical distance? Obstacles?

    TBH, (802.11g) Linksys router + linksys cards..
    Most cards are "reliable" - the reason for going with the same brand is compatibility..)
