I am thinking to move my server (FC3) from the office room to a basement and to connect it via wireless network. I am just wondering which PCI cards (or USB) works well under FC3 and are not very complicated to setup? I have a Netgear wi-fi router WGT624GR.

I really wouldn't suggest this. Wireless is great but at it's best it's not going to be as reliable and fast as good ol' CAT5. At it's worst, you'll get dropped server connections, poor performance, data corruption, lots of bad things. Put your wireless AP|router in the basement and the server right next to it, connection via CAT5. As far as card recommendations, Atheros based chips work pretty well with the madwifi driver.
