Using 2 usb nics will not help here, in fact, it's just going to probably freak out your system. Just don't do that as a friendly recommendation. Atheros and Realtek tend to have good linux support these days, I can't remember the last time I picked up a random usb stick and did NOT have it work.

If you're dropping often, it's probably more an RF issue, ie. coverage isn't sufficient. In linux, it's easy to see your levels, use iwconfig when connected to wifi, and look at your Signal Level. It'll be represented as a negative integer, say -50 dBm. The higher the number (remember, this is n

Don't buy anything unless you can confirm it has 100% linux support. The PCI version of that card says it has linux support, but PCIe version looks suspicious. I don't think PCIe cards will work in a PCI slot. Just get a card from here: https://www.thinkpenguin.com/catalog/wireless-networking-g
