I have 2 wireless G USB Dongles, I was wondering if you can use them both at same time to pump twice the amount of data to your pc wirelessly. I get a weak signal my cable internet is 5 meg speed, but on this PC I can only pump through 1600 kbps, thats only a 3rd of my max speed, i was wondering if I could use 2 of them to get twice the speed.

2 adapters this close will create interference, also if you overcome this the machine will be slower, as it will keep wasting time checking which to use, the do not work in conjunction. If this is a desktop try running the card from an extension lead and set it up high and clear of obstructions. The same rule applies to the router or access point. If this does not work you need a range extender, site it towards the limit of reception of the router. Set in extend mode it needs no cables, just power.

Well NO it wont add any speed at all and would generate IP issues probably causing you to not connect at all. You need to get better signal to your system to increase the speed. Either with better antennas on your router or better adapters.
