    5 of 5 Great card Sunday, February 20, 2005
    Alok from Cincinnati, OH  

    I've been very happy with my Netgear products. This is now my secondary card on my wife's computer as I paid more to to get an 802.11g card from Netgear also, but honestly, for a home network, there's really no point to pay the extra money. An 802.11b will do you JUST fine and they're so CHEAP now compared to when I bought this thing over a year ago. And for an 802.11b card, this one's a good one.

    5 of 5 So Far - Its Great Thursday, October 14, 2004
    Ted from New York, NY  
    Got this new card two days ago (at time of writing 10/14/04) to replace my MA401 which I think had lost performance due to overheating. The MA 521 worked liked a charm. Drivers loaded quickly and card worked right away with great connectivity. Buy.com price was great too
