hey guys!
My friend just bought me Asus PCI AC68 network card, i have no experience with Asus at all. So i changed my current network card (Alfa AWUS036NHA), my internet connection started dropping specially when playing csgo, other than that the card is very good, i get up to 2 mb speed while downloading torrents, and yes i exit torrent while playing from taskbar. My question is however, did i misplace the card antennas as i have no idea if they are omnidirectional, if not is there some kind of way to place them. Plus i would like you to tell me the best ALFA longranged network outthere,)price isn;t important( i just need to play my games without lag. ETHERNET is no option. pls just tell me what do? should i buy a new card? new antennas? i read alfa are one of the best so far, and my experince with my usb card was astonshing. I gave the card to my friend, and i can't ask him to give it back. So pls guys i need help?

When you said "long range" I was thinking cross-country long range. You might be talking about across the house long range. You can buy new antennas from many places. The standard is reverse polarity SMA male connectors at the antenna or antenna cable. Your AWUS036NHA is standard.

A good antenna is a Hawking HAI15SC Hi-Gain Wireless Corner Antenna. There is one on eBay now with a starting bid of $0.99 and it has 4 days to go in that auction. Click HERE to view. This is a directional antenna so it must point somewhat towards the target.
You want a long-range wireless network and price isn't important eh... well, ALFA is JUNK.
If you want the good stuff, click HERE
You didn't exactly say if you wanted a wide area WiFi network or a point-to-point network so I went with PTP.

They show some nice pictures that show a typical installation. BTW, you'll need 2 of them. They can be purchased HERE
