So I've been playing on wifi usb sticks for a long time, didn't had much trouble. I was aware of slow downloading speeds with this stick, at 1.8-2.3mb/s max.
I would like when i buy something new that it would enhance that (a bit) too. My brother is plugged in with a cable on it and it has 4.5-5mb/s with unlimited dl gb's.
But that's not the main reason i want to purchase a new one. My usb stick is plugged into the usb ports and it keeps disconnecting like never before, I've tried like changing it to 3 ports but it keeps disconnecting. i also had high ping issues as of lately, i think the usb stick is worn/used.
The usb stick i use is: TP-Link Archer T4U
So my home situation is my internet router is in my brothers room, but its on the opposite (thick) wall behind me. So his wall doesn't give out on my pc sits at the opposite of it so i cant plug it in.
My parents are against drilling holes, and i dont even have the equipment to do it if i wanted to or expertise (because theres electrics wires in the wall).
So i wanna buy something that doesn't keep falling out, like a pci card that i plug into the motherboard. But i'm not aware what i need to buy in order (in terms of specs) to make it work efficiently and fast. I want something futureproof so i don't have this issues again later. I was thinking about a pci or NETWORK card that you can plug into your motherboard, i heard it isnt that hard too do.
What do i need to know and how to look at the specs so that i'm sure that i buy a good network card and it works? Thanks for help
