im just curious why they dont make wireless n dual band pci adapters no more they make usb 2 adapters but not pci ones and i find that really odd as pci is faster than usb2 and it seems stupid also tell me if im wrong but pci cards have massive antennas on them were as usb dongles dont so it cant be really good for coverage

USB 2.0 max thoroughput is 480 Mbit/s, 802.11n is less than a fourth of that. In practice, you won't hit either limit.
