    Should be fine. Just make sure there are drivers for your OS before you buy.

    First check the specs of your router. For example, is it 802.11g only? If so you could get away with a cheaper card. Of course you may have plans for future upgrades of your router so consider that also.

    Second check what internal expansion slots you have free. An internal PCI card might be neater and cheaper than a USB dongle sticking out. Most of them have moveable antenna so the reception should be better than a flat USB stick as well.
