So i'm looking to make an ad-hoc connection with 2 usb wireless adapters. The distance would be approximately 45m and just one wall between them. I tried with my laptop, and a usb adapter, and got 2 bars signal. Problem is that it wasn't connecting half the time and took me a while to find a spot to get 3 bars and finally get connected. Would this work with 2 usb adapters? How much weaker is a laptops internal wireless vs usb adapter? Thanks :)

The adapter I already have is Netgear WG111v2 usb. The second one I'm looking at is http://www.take2.co.za/electronics-patriot-box-office-wireless-dongle-5199415.html
