Do the USB wireless network adapters work?
Have an extra desktop computer that i want to put in my work shop, It is to far to run a network cable, but my laptop does work out in the building.
Walmart has a Belkin F5D9050 Wireless-G Plus MIMO USB Network Adapter or should i go and find a card that i can put inside the computer?

Sure they work.

Will yours work where you are? Try it and see.

Yes. The ones with external antenna connections are best.

Try to choose something other than Belkin.

I trust Linksys or D-Link.
