Range did not improve.......2007-06-12

My desktop had a older LinkSys 802.11b PCI card installed and the reception strength was very low from my office area. I decided to buy this card and upgrade the speed and hopefully gain better range and reception. Didn't work out. This card constantly disconnected and the reception was worse that the old Linksys.

I sent it back.

D-Link WDA-2320 More than Meets My Needs.......2007-05-21

Purchase of this network card finalized my project of getting all 6 of my machines on my wireless network. Product meets my expetations and was priced within an acceptable range

Works with Vista.......2007-04-14

Strongly recommended for users of Windows Vista both 32-bit and 64-bit. This is one of the few wireless cards that will work out-of-the-box. I had to replace a Netgear card due to flaky Vista drivers especially for the 64-bit version. I installed the D-Link card and Vista found drivers then it installed them with no hassles.

This thing is great!!!.......2007-02-17

This thing just works. I have combined it with the D-link 2310 Rangebooster G router and get up to 108Mbps speed for the same money as other 54Mbps router/card combinations. Noticed a huge difference in download speeds over my wireless a/b combo. Excellent for my online games.

Would highly recommend.

Good signal, no overclock.......2006-10-11

Similar to a previous review, initially my WDA-2320 was hogging 10-30% of my CPU cycles with deferred procedure calls (DPCs) and hardware interrupts. After removing a sound card that shared the same IRQ, the problem remained. I eventually discovered that the problem was due to my increasing the PCI bus speed via an overclocked FSB. With the PCI bus running at 70 instead of 66MHz the card would hog the CPU. Set at base 66MHz the card functions fine. Kind of a PITA but what can you do. Next time I will just wait for a few days and order a real card from Newegg rather than the local BB. Hope this helps someone out there!
