lol lets assume you meant 64 bit and as long as your processor supports it yeah 64 bit is generally better though there are a few (not really common) things a 32 bit version may do better

steelseries ones 100-150 turtle beach same price range razer are a bit cheaper but cancel noise less (the charcarias especially don't cancel as well as the other companies sets generally do) not listing specific models as he didn't list 3.5mm jacks or usb or any other connection type.

turtle beach steelseries razer pretty much any gaming headset worth buying

rhel and debian are pretty common. With that said, learning from one distrobution usually goes to pretty much any other with little to no modification depending how specific you get but most generic things work on them all.

use cgi:irc or a vpn if you want to hide your ip ultimately theres not much you can do about server admins reading chats in channel and if one or both of you are not on ssl pm's as well if you're that worried about it run your own network and make it passworded/ssl only

colocate or get a vps in your city/state and run your own you can colocate for 50$ a month if you aren't too picky or vps for 5$ish

wow niether of those look good 3-4GB/day is easy to hit you're likely going to go over also both are listed as wireless? not good go for at least a wired connection if you can.

sudo ifconfig

then look on the left hand side for wlan0/ath0 (it'll be in the same column as eth0)
To connect wirelessly try (as root or add sudo before the commands):

If you don't know the essid:
iwlist <wireless card from previous ifconfig> scan
and it will output all of the wireless networks it can find.
iwconfig wlan0 essid "<essid of your network>"
ifconfig wlan0 up
dhclient wlan0

to get the chipset lspci or lsusb depending on card type should tell you. To tell what module is loaded lsmod.

Not sure if this helps but it has a starting point at least.

Few things to try and check. Do you still have a wlan0/ath0 or whatever device? What happens if you connect using terminal (iwconfig/ifconfig/dhclient). If no wlan/ath device what chipset is your wireless card?

MAC filtering is effectively useless as spoofing it is relatively easy. Perhaps setup rules so everything except traffic over voip is filtered no matter where it comes from?

ip route <network you're informing the router about> <subnet> <next hop to get there>

first one is pretty much say this is my default gateway the second one says to get to the 192.168.1.16 network please go through 10.1.1.2

It is used for static ip routes.
