Rating: - Good bang-for-the-buck
I'm happy with this purchase. My very old laptop (HP Pavilion ZE4145) does not have WiFi built in and for the past two years, I've been using an Airlink 101 USB Wireless dongle.

Rating: - Solid, but slow...
It's a reliable card, and for the price, you can't go wrong. By slow, I mean the bundled Netgear network "sniffing" software (program that finds and connects to networks) takes its sweet time connecting to a network. It took 30 seconds to connect to a Netgear router, while my Mac's AirPort Extreme connected in under 5 seconds. But the Netgear software was more reliable than the Windows supplied program on the ThinkPad it went into, so I guess you win some and lose some.

I generally have the worse luck with wireless cards, but this on is great. It seams to be well built and sturdy and I have not had any problems with it. I would recommend this car to anyone
Rating:  - Broken After 2 Weeks

I purchased the card refurbished with a warranty for about $20. After it broke, I did not want to go through the bother of contacting their customer service department and following their frustrating return process. For $20, I am not going ... Read More
