... so I keep being told 
Anyway, just interested in your experience with various USB wireless dongles. I've tried the Edimax EW7711 UAn in a couple places, and have bought them for a few other people. They tend to do the job, but only with 2 or (at best) 3 bars of signal.
I can't help but feel there should be something better on the market... but maybe not for the price? They are cheap, that's true, at about £10 each.
What USB dongles do you swear by and which would you absolutely avoid?
