Summary: DWL-1000 AP - Easy Set Up
Review: Using the DWL-1000 and DWL-650 (wireless pcmcia Ethernet adapter), I was out of the box and on the internet in less than 10 minutes using an IBM ThinkPad, LinkSys Etherfast Cable/DSL Router, and cablemodem. I also have a desktop on the router, and have not had any problems, except for an initial IP address conflict that went away after I rebooted both PC's.I had hoped to put the access point in the basement with the router and modem, but the signal strength was poor (operable, but poor), so I had to move the AP to the main floor. Sure beats running CAT-5 cabling all over the house!

Summary: I'm Wireless!
Review: Welcome to my first WIRELESS Amazon review. Unfortunately, it's not a good one for this product. Here's my plight. I bought this product on eBay for 30 bucks, new in the box. Couldn't resist. I was like a little kid waiting for something to come in the mail. Out of the box, it worked! But only for a second. Then, like other posters here, it couldn't find my SSID. Went through the troubleshooting guide - no dice. Looked to forums - no dice. Tried this - no dice, tried that, no dice. Finally called tech support. 20 minute call to the first rep. Nice enough but couldn't help me. Bumped me to the next guy. He told me (get this) that I needed to go buy a router. Okay, I don't need a router. That's why I bought a WAP! It's supposed to be a router. See, alls I want is to be able to connect from my laptop to the net. That's it. Soooooooo I mozey on down to Radio Shack, and I see a vanilla router - 45 bucks. I see the Lynksys wireless b router, $59 bucks. Went with the Linksys - BINGO! Right out of the box. Connected. The moral of this story? Don't buy electronics stuff on eBay unless you can return it. When it comes to this type of stuff - do your homework. Check reviews and customer experience on Amazon. Don't be penney wise with wireless!

Summary: D-Link Wireless
Review: With simple and clear instructions, setting up my D-Link Wireless LAN was a piece of cake. The range is more than adequate (I've tested it to about 200 feet).
