What is the best wireless adapter for WiFi gaming?

Hello everyone,,

I just moved into a new house and my new gaming room doesn’t have any cable outlets within range. My wife won’t let me drill through any walls or run some long cords. Spectrum wasn’t any help either based off of my wife’s hard nose’d stance.

 

So basically I have no choice but to use WiFi. I have almost exclusively used Ethernet my whole life, so this has been rough? Anybody got some suggestions?

Are you wanting pci-e card, usb device, wireless ax, wireless ac, what exactly are you wanting from this?

If you'd like pci-e cards, i'd recommend either the killer 1650 or intel AX200. you can get them for a laptop with a pci-e adapter and they work quite well.

Or you could buy a set of powerline devices and see how they work in your house. Some houses it works great in, not so well in others. 

Another option is moCa adapters. thats ethernet over coax. 

I've used both options and had luck with both.
