Summary: Eureka! It works (and darn well, too)!
Review: As thrilled as I am with this product I have to hold back and only give it three stars. Ok, the product is great, the support at Linksys was *extremely* helpful and knowledgeable, but the hold time to get support...horrid. My first call, 20 minutes on hold (not bad); second call 50 minutes; third and final call 65 minutes. Better get a speaker phone if you're calling support at Linksys.Also, the manuals included with both the card, adapter and the wireless router are a joke. I followed the instructions to a "T" and was stopped cold. The fixes that support walked me through were so easy they should be included in the troubleshooting section of the manual. However, once the card/adapter were properly installed and configured...wow! I am amazed at the throughput. Also, despite what the Linksys techs and their manual tell you, I have not noticed any degradation in throughput when using 40bit encryption. So, overall a great product; love it! You'll just need patience (a lot of it) if you have to call the Linksys helpdesk.

Summary: Think I was given missinformation by sales person and linksy
Review: From what I read your tech miss informed me me that this set up would work on my laptop with Win XP. I hope this did not screw up my computer.

Summary: IT DOES NOT WORK WITH THE WPC11 WIRELESS
Review: I bought a WDT11 and a WPC11 - Linksys Instant Wireless Network PC Card and the WPC11 doesn't fit the WDT11. After spending one hour with tech support (who kept saying I was inserting the card in the wrong way), I was told that the version 4 of the WPC11 requires a 32-bit Cardbus and doesn't work with the 16-bit PC Card slot of the WDT11. Isn't it amazing that Linksys releases a new hardware with the same model and SKU numbers? At the Linksys site, they continue to list the WPC11 as compatible with the WDT11.
Is this just plain stupidity or malice?

Summary: DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!
Review: I bought the WDT11 and it seemed to work fine except that my computer would no longer perform a RESTART (W2K) after installation unless I unplugged the WPC11 from it. Linksys tech support was clueless as to the cause of the problem, and could not help except to exchange the unit. Of course the replacement did not allow a restart either. The downgrade is not necessarily for the unit so much as for the cluelessness of Linksys support. I have Dell hardware, so it's not as if I am running rogue hardware! I can SHUTDOWN and reboot normally, however.

Summary: Useless Junk
Review: I bought the WDT11 and WPC11 version 3 as a set to network my two remote PC's. After 12 hours I'm giving up and shipping thw whole lot back. Linksys support were realy useful by telling to download 4meg of zip files onto the PC's that don't have internet connections. Their advice was by a CD burner for the one that is on the internet...:-). The WPC11 verson 3 I put in my laptop worked first time

Summary: This may not be what you think!
Review: I do not think this is not a PCI card to connect your desktop computer to a wireless hub. It is very important to read the technical information about this card. It should say "ONLY campatible with the Linksys Instant Wireless network PC Card (wpc11)". This is the card used in a laptop configuation. I do not think this is supposed to be used like a wireless connection for your desktop computer (Internet Server) to a hub. It is more like a cross over cable for desktop computer to laptop solution. If you are looking for quick, limited, solution this will work just fine. I am not saying that this card will *not* connect to a hub, I just do not think that conecting to a hub is what this product was meant to do. If you are pointing this card into a wall or hide it in a desk it is not going to work well. I bought this and sent it back at my expense because I did not read the fine print. Good Luck with your wireless adventure. I am sure it will be changing soon.

Summary: Wireless Adapter works great!
Review: I have 4 computers at my home and three are desktop computers. I bought 3 Linksys Wireless Desktop adapters and 3 wireless pc cards - It was so easy to set up and did exactly what it said on the box. I also have a wireless access point and the linksys router. My whole 'Linksys' network is running great. I definitely recommend Linksys if you want a network!

Summary: Hide the gun.....
Review: I have never seen anything as bad as this. I have a BEFW11S4 router and a WMP11 card by Linksys. What a joke!!! Tech support is as bad as the product. The card made my comp crash so bad, I had to re-format the hard drive...yes everything gone. Never got it working. The manual is badly written. The first time in years that I've had any trouble installing anything. Word of wisdom....stay away from this product. I had to give it 1 star (which it doesn't deserve that). I could go on but what's the use.....

Summary: Works really well.
Review: I have used a lot of these in wireless networks and they work great with the WPC11 wireless network card. They are easy to install and give good performance in actual use. It costs less to use the WDT11 as it is a complete PCI wireless network card so be sure to take a look at those before you order.

Summary: Running on Windows 2000 Desktop
Review: I installed the PCI Adapter in an IBM Intellistation Pro running Windows 2000. As another reviewer pointed out, the drivers that ship with the card do not work on all systems. They did not work for the Intellistation. I had to download the latest drivers from the Linksys web site. But, here's the catch. You won't find the latest drivers listed under the WDT11. Instead, download the latest drivers for the Wireless PC Card (WPC11). This driver set has INF entries for both the WPC11 and WDT11. Once I removed the old driver files and ran these new ones, everything worked. The card works great. I keep the Intellistation three rooms away from the access point (a Linksys WAP 11), and the computer still acheives Internet download speeds of 300 kilobytes/second. (My home network shares a cable modem connection.) I am amazed with the performance of this card. I was skeptical that anything close to 11 Mbs could be achieved under real-world conditions. I was prepared for real-world performance more like 300 kilobits/second than 300 kilobytes per second. This card actually performs as well as many wired 10 Mbs Ethernet cards. However, Linksys does lose a star for the responsiveness of their tech support. When I first could not get the card to work, I contacted Linksys tech support. I recommend calling. I first sent e-mail and did not receive a response for five days. In the interim I called them and after ten minutes got a person who provided reasonable suggestions. However, none of the suggestions worked. Then, I got the bright idea to try the WPC11 drivers. When Linksys finally answered the e-mail, they provided the correct solution by sending me the new drivers. So, I'll give them some credit for coming up with the correct answer but one that was very late. I replied to them that they should correct their web site. I was told that my suggestion was forwarded to the webmaster. That was a month ago and the defective drivers are still listed under the WDT11.
