WAP + PCI Comparison?



I have moved into a new house and need wireless connectivity for my
desktop PC. I stream internet radio and will stream video, I also play
real-time online games like Vendetta Online. I already have DSL plus a
hub and etc. Usually 2-3 users using wireless constantly with an
occational 1-2 laptops visiting using 80211b.

I want speed and QoS for the desktops, and looking at
http://www.tomsnetworking.com/2006/02/27/wireless_networking_ntk_2006/page8.html
it appears I want either a combination of

D-Link DWL-7100AP (access point) + DWL-AG530 (PCI card for the
desktops)
or
Netgear WAG-311 (access point) + WAG-102 (PCI card for the
desktops)

But all of the online reviews have said that these families of AP
products stink and generally don't work as advertised. I am used to
D-Link's poor tech support, and I hear that Netgear's is not really
better.


Does anyone have a recommendation for 108mbps wireless networking that
works as advertised?
