Currently using Netgear Powerline, but it doesn't seem real reliable as connectivity seems to come and go at random times. I have an Amplifi HD mesh router in the house. Is there a recommended wifi adaptor that will give me good reliability and throughput?

If you have WiFi N network, grab it, anything else you need more advanced one.

Thanks for the feedback. Wasn't sure if I would get better results from a PCI card vs USB dongle.

I have used USB dongles in the past with a wide variance of 'luck'... They serve their need, but I have seen data channel performance issues.
