wireless will work. I use it on my laptop and AC works fine. Make sure you have a good connection. Most network traffic is internittent, but AC uses a constant stream.

Most wireless cards have some diagnostics in the software that comes with them.

Also Stumpy, if you have more than one PC using the wireless connection, you may have to specify a port on the AC setting selection when you first start up the game. Something different than what the other computer is using.. I had the same problem when I got Tav's computer working. Allowing it to determine the port automatically caused problems with us.
