Re: Techie Advice - Poker Laptop
Most notebooks you buy today are Wi-Fi enabeld. If you buy a centrino (tm) notebook it's guaranteed to have an Intel 802.11B(Wi-Fi) radio installed. It's not the fastest thing out there but it will work well for internet poker.
Now if you want to use this at home and you have a broadband connection today, you need to buy a Wi-Fi base station. These devices tend to run less than $100 and are pretty much plug and play. Fire up the machine and your wireless up to a theoretic 100yards. Now if you happen to be lucky and live in a neighborhood like mine, 5 of your neighbors have base stations and don't bother to encrypt the signal. This gives all of us great covereage for a good half mile. Very nice when your playing poker and smoking ribs. |
