Summary: Great little gizmo!
Review: Bought this thing to go along with my sexy new Linksys Wireless 4-Port Cable/DSL Router and things couldn't have gone smoother. In one hour I had the whole thing shooting data straight through 3 walls and a floor at a very high rate of speed. Very impressive!

Summary: Wireless Networking Made Easy
Review: I recently purchased a new Dell Dimension 4500 and wanted to hook up to the cable modem which is 2 floors below (installed in my brothers basement room.) After much research via techtv.com, I settled on the Linksys products. I purchsed a Wirless Router and the USB adapter both by Linksys. Anyone that is interested in setting up a wireless adapter should consider these products. Installing the Wirless Router took a little time and a call to the extremely helpfull Linksys customer service. Installing this USB wireless adapter was simple. Just plug it in and go! All the instructions are easy to follow, and actually, the install wizard made it even simpler. I was hooked up to the cable modem two floors below and on the other side of the house within 5 minutes. My connection is always 'very strong' and I love the ability for instant access to the web. Wirless networking is not all the same, but with Linksys, I am a happily satisfied customer who will purchas from them again in the future!

Summary: Perfection
Review: While I normally don't have too many good words to say about all the flaky hardware out there, this little purple box is an exception. I had it working with my linksys router in under 5 minutes (under XP), and working in Linux in under 1 hour. (I have version 2.5) Atmel has opensourced their linux driver so getting these to work in the future under linux should not be problem While I agree with a prior poster, USB 1.1 is not a great solution to choose for networking in terms of performance, this product is a great choice if you want a quick and flexible solution (works in both laptops and desktops) and throughput isn't too important to you.

Summary: super!
Review: I've had the Linksys Wireless PC Card for 3 weeks or so now on a Sony laptop with Windows XP. Installs in 3 seconds and has worked without fail. The two other computers in the house use the USB versions, and they, too, are working beautifuly. What a relief not to bother with the wires any more and have real speed. Perhaps most important, I have the Linksys router and access point unit relieve my desktop from functioning as a server for the other computers on my home network. Now everybody can use the internet whether my desktop is on or off.
Congratulations, Linksys!

Summary: Awesome, worked right out of the box
Review: I have a Linksys wireless cable/dsl router, which I use only to share internet connections among pc's in my house. Set up was easy -- the instructions were clear and accurate. More impressive is the ease with which wireless clients can see the network and just hop on. For example, I use an Apple iBook, and I was hesitant to get an Airport card, worried that I'd have problems getting it to see the pc-based Linksys router. I know that 802.11b is supposed to be "compatible" across the board, but ... well, we all know how that works (or doesn't work!) sometimes. Nevertheless, I took the chance, and everything worked perfectly. The Airport card saw the network immediately, and I was on the internet from my iBook a few seconds later without a single glitch. Impressed, I bought a Netgear wireless usb adapter for another pc in the house. Unfortunately, it didn't work at all. After working over an hour with tech support, I decided to trade it in for this Linksys wireless usb adapter. Best move I made! The Linksys unit found and communicated with the router within minutes after it was out of the box. Connection speeds are amazing -- indistinguishable from the pc that's hard wired to the router. I can't tell you how pleased I am with the Linksys router and wireless adapters -- they just plain work!

Summary: Support-free hardware that doesn't work
Review: Bought one of these to add to a relatively complex home network - SMC Barricade router, Linksys wireless router to extend range into other parts of the house, three SMC USB wireless adapters, and a laptop with wireless built in. The Linksys device doesn't work on any machine or OS in the house, failing in unique ways with each one. Three emails to support produced no responses, not even a robot "we got your email." Over a half hour on hold when I called...and then disconnected. It looks cool, but don't buy it unless looks are, absolutely, everything. Support matters.

Summary: XP, 98 & 98se. Works on all of them!
Review: This is to all the doubting ppl out there. I ordered 2 of these little wonders and hooked one up to a machine running XP and the other to a 98 machine. The XP box is 2 floors below my router, also a linksys(befw11s4, another great product!), and the signal stregth is GREAT!!! My walls are sheet rock covered with plaster and my basement is all concrete! No signal loss at all! I installed these little beauts and in less than five mins I had my wireless network in place! Can't wait for my wireless pcima card for my laptop! Then I'll have a NT machine on my network too! Thanks linksys for a great product! Also, had no trouble with getting ip addy's either. My advice, RTFM first, then you should have no problems. BTW, I got the 2.6 version. Router is V2.

Summary: Works great until you use the phone!!
Review: This product works great for me until I pick up my new 2.4 Ghz phone and it kills every one of these Linksys wireless adpaters in the house (I had 3), I can use any of the 900Mhz phones with no problem BUT if you have or plan to get 2.4Ghz wireless products you better stay away from this. I finally gave up and wired my house and solved the problem, its a great product otherwise
