Which Wireless Card?

[Kouen Hasuki]

OK now ive been thinking about it for a few days and still cannot decide

What would you all pick

I have 2 MiniPCI Wifi cards and im really looking for overall best for battery life and performance

The 2 cards are a Broadcom BCM94318MPAGH and a Intel Wireless Pro 2915ABG

Battery life would come 1st but signal pickup would be 2nd

What do you all think

If it were me, I'd trust broadcom before intel with wireless.

But my first priority is signal quality.

I'm not aware of intel vs. broadcom as far as power draw goes.

Trying both without the antenna connected I noticed the Intel connected at a much better rate then the broadcom did but ya im kinda thinking about the power draw due to it being for a laptop

I really don't know, but from what i've read intel does have better power draw numbers.

My last laptop had an intel card, and this one is broadcom, it's likely that i forgot about this, and the intel card would be a good 6 years older
