    what wireless adaptor to get

    Have a netgear 7500 nighthawk about to be unboxed when the new fibre connection arrives next week. I currently only have a wireless N USB adaptor (from DLink) and wondering whether the machine would benefit from a swap to wireless AC and/or Netgear adaptor. If a change is needed, what should I go for? Any recommendations?

    Where not even in that 11ac band range yet on Virgin media so would get a 600mbps in the N range one that should do what you want as your max download speed will 4Gbps - 5Gbps per sec might be more
