I originally had the WUSB54Gv4 Linksys adapter on an XP desktop, which worked okay. Though there was a wall in the way, I wasn't very impressed that it only got a 30% signal from a router 8-9ft away.

I had purchsed a Linksys router and set up a wireless network in my house. However I had a PC on the far end of the house. I dreaded the idea of opening up the box to install a card.

Rating: - Second quality
This product was shipped with a copy of the installation CD. It would not install properly. It was returned and I had to pay to return it.
Rating: - Works great.
I bought this wireless adapter to connect a pc in my office. Works great and keeps connected all day. Originally i bought the compact linksys adapter but was disappointed with the signal strength. I think this model is better because it has an external antenna as apposed to the internal antenna on the compact model. I am very pleased with this purchase. I give it 5 stars.
