5 of 5 Linksys Quality Thursday, December 04, 2008
A Customer from Overseas
I received this product quickly in spite of living overseas. Only took 10 minutes to install and have up and communicating with my Linksys Wireless-N Router that's protected with PSK2 encryption. Bought to replace an older 802.11G wireless NIC that was incapable of connecting with WPA2/AES. No problems accessing my N-router from any room in my house with maximum throughput of 65+Mbps on a bad day and on the fringes - 802.11G maxes out at only 54Mbps on a good day. There's no comparison. Great product! Would definitely recommend. Was this review helpful?  
4 of 5 My onboard 802.11G failed Wednesday, May 07, 2008
Kevin from Longmont, CO
...so I thought I'd try the N adapter to match the N WAP I put in recently. I haven't stretched the bounds of range but so far I haven't had any difficulties with it. It does seem to be a bit more sensitive to nearfield cell RFI, however. Was this review helpful?

1 of 5 Don't waste your time with the WPC600N Adapter Thursday, April 24, 2008
A Customer from Gonzales, LA
Within 50 feet of a WRT600N Linksys router, the built-in 802.11g adapter in my Dell 710m notebook outperformed this Linksys Dual Band 802.11n PCMCIA adapter. Was this review helpful?
