@camoceltic Most laptop or desktop wireless adapters use pretty crummy controller chips, which makes even the ones that have good antennas pretty pointless. But you don't see the microcontroller really, you see the antenna, so of course its that they make look good.

@camoceltic The best antenna in the world won't do any good if the microcontroller is a cheap China special that doesn't have any fault tolerance logic. That logic is what makes most of the difference here I imagine. Cellphones can't rely on having good wifi hotspots theyre being used with so they can't usually get away with cheaping out on them.
