Completed a new build however stuck with an old TL-WN321G USB wireless card that (obviously) starts to fail to meet my expectations (especially while gaming, sudden disconnects etc, 5 years was surely enough for it)
Now I got some budget (round 10-30 dollars) and want to invest in a new card. Wire is a really far option since:
1)~15 meters of cabling with no practical route possible
2)cannot relocate the fiberglass router, nor the modem
Here is the scene:
*I have a 12-13 meter direct distance to router, with an entire kitchen between, however I don't experience packet loss nor much latency (no microwave if it's important)
*building is 12 years old, cannot say much about electrical system
*I am prohibited to even nail something (why I cannot move the router)
*I have an old entry level router, however I plan to upgrade it (it has no 5 ghz band and max is probably on 240mbits/s)
Should I go for a powerline or a PCI-E adapter? And which can you recommend? (Please keep in mind that I live in Turkey, importing isn't possible nor not much stuff are available here)
Here is the top recommendations that won't do:
Archer T6E/T9E (simplt too expensive, however might invest in T6E)
Asus 4x4 /PCE-AC6X versions (unavailable/too expensive)
