Summary: Lots of bang for the buck..
Review: Contrary to another review I read, it does work fine as a client but you need either a cross-over cable or a hub with a cross-over port. It also works great as a bridge! I'm actually going about 1000 ft. between buildings with this using 2 external yagi antennas (that I made) and the link has been up even in heavy downpours. The SNMP management tool is a bit quirky (I find it doesn't always save my settings to the box), but once these boxes are set you basically forget about them anyway!

Review: Echoing the sentiments of many others, my DWL-900AP works, but barely. It took me hours to figure out how to set it up, and work around the bugs in the software and firmware. In the end, I ended up flashing the firmware with Linksys firmware (the firmware for their WAP11 device works on the DWL-900AP).The wireless network works now, but occasionally, a remote computer can't get through. Pinging the AP seems to remedy this. Other times (once every couple months), the unit stops working entirely. So I load up the configuration utility and play with the settings until it magically starts working again. Its inconsistent behavior is extremely frustrating, and I'm tempted to throw it away and buy a different AP, just to get rid of the hassle. I don't recommend this product to anyone.

Review: I already have a DLink wireless network at home, but have a computer which has some software conflicts preventing me from adding a wireless card to it. The DWL-900 allowed me to use the existing network card and a cross over cable to gain wireless access to my existing DLink DWL-1000 Access point. The computer uses its existing network card, drivers, etc. and has no clue it is remote. The DWL-900 appears to do everything plus more than the DWL-1000 as far as I can tell, but I am very happy with both access points. The included USB connection and cable made setup a snap. Only non-trivial issue was the need to use a cross-over cable (rather than a standard network cable) in my situation. If using two of these devices to connect two hubs, you would just use the uplink ports of each with standard cables.

Review: I bought the 900AP to use as a client and bridge, but found out after many hours that the client and bridging functions only work
with the DLink DWL-900AP and DWL-1000AP (See the FAQ on the DLink website). Unless you have one of those products already, this product only works as an limited access point. If you want an access point, the SMC 7004AWBR is much better. It alos has a router, webserver for configuration, switch, mac address filtering, better range, etc.

Summary: Good Access Point, not for other features
Review: I bought the DWL-900AP to use as an access point client with my existing wireless network. After several calls to support I found out that it doesn't actually work as a client (only as a bridge.) I tried setting up as an access point and it did work great, I did find that the linksys software for the WAP-11 worked better for configuring the DWL900 than the software that comes with it.

Summary: D-Link Wireless Access Point - First Impressions
Review: I bought this for a great price from [on line company]. I just received it today and I have to say, it works well. The instructions were clearly written and the setup was a snap. It took a little more work to get my PCMCIA Adapter (purchased separately) connected (Problems unrelated to the DLINK), but, everything works well together. PRO's: Low Price; Easy Setup; Configurable as either a Wireless Access Point or a Gateway (to bridge Wireless networks together); Detachable Antennae (can potentially connect aftermarket antennae to allow for greater coverage); Compatible with any Ethernet Router that has an extra ethernet port. CON's: USB Connection Required for Setup (but drivers available for current OS's including XP)--afterwards can be managed via SNMP software included with the router; USB Cable Included, but, No Ethernet Cable Included. NOTES: This product is only a Wireless Access Point -- It does not function as a ROUTER--so if you want/need to share a Cable Modem or other network connection wirelessly you'll need a separate router,...
