Vista Incompatible.......2007-05-16

You must first install the software, then shut down, then install card, then power up and configure. Unfortunately, you cannot install the software if you are running any version of Vista. D-Link tech support apologizes for this known issue and suggests downloading their Vista driver Beta which they describe as 'unstable.' Huh?

This one finally worked.......2007-02-06

I have several Linksys wireless adapters, usb, pci, etc that I could never configure with a Linksys wireless cable modem/router. This one worked fine. Go figure. I had to reinstall once when it stopped working by (1) removing software, (2) removing the card, (3) reinstalling software, (4) reinstalling the card. Installing software 1st seems to be an important step.

very happy. works with linux........2007-01-12

yes, it works with the linux madwifi (atheros: ath_pci) driver. although w/ FC6 is a real pain to configure....eg. i had it working properly w/Network Manager and suddenly, not working again. at any rate it's linux approved! now go forth and b mobile. :-)

Great Connection...Difficult Setup.......2007-01-06

Overall, I have a great connection that has not failed in the 4 months I've owned it. The only drawback I had with this is that the install instructions were insufficient and I had to wind up calling customer service. Although I thought this was a pain, they got it to work properly and I have not been dissappinted. I highly recommend getting this product.

Avoid this junk.......2006-12-04

Now I see why this thing was only $20 retail. Its a piece of junk. It takes forever to connect to a router that is only 10 feet away. The highest download speed I achieved was 53 Kb/s and I am on a 6 Mb/s network. The latest drivers at the D-Link site are 2 years old. Now I see why there was a big stack of them at the retail store. They are trying to dump all the obselete junk on the consumers. I took it back to exchange for a Linksys
