Hi all, I am looking to change my USB WIFI adapter, I currently have belkin F5D8053 v6 and was wondering what to buy instead, I am looking for an adapter that will give me the fastest possible broadband, any ideas?

I'd say ignore USB altogether and look at PCI cards or homeplugs or Ethernet if speed is your thing.

Are homeplugs very good? I looked at few of them online and the price difference is huge, any recommendations about which one to choose?

Most of the homeplugs contain one RJ45 port, if I want to use the homeplugs for 2 devices then the best thing I think is to connect the homeplug to a router via RJ45 then connect the devices into the router with RJ45, this way I will have maximum speed, any other recommendations regarding the setup or the material to buy? Thanks on advance.
