    4 of 5 Beware MAC users Saturday, June 07, 2008
    A Customer from New York, NY  

    I recently purchased two of these to network my condo and it was my first time networking PCs with MACs. You must purchased v2 instead of v3 in order for your MAC to be able to link up. Lame, but MAC is one step behind the PC software.

    5 of 5 terrific... Friday, January 18, 2008
    Bklyn Lady from Brooklyn, NY  
    Product came on time and had no shipping problems. The product itself is great and works reliably. Very easy to install; very easy to use. The price was fantastic as I shopped around for a long time and Buy.com beat out all the others stores, online or offline. I would definitely recommend this product. I would also recommend buying it from Buy.com

    3 of 5 Average adapter Friday, October 12, 2007
    A Customer from Brooklyn NY  
    This adapter is easy to setup, speed is good and the price is right. However, after some period of inactivity the adapter loses connectivity to my network, the only way to regain access to network is to restart the computer. Tried on my other computer and had the same issue. Both computers run windows XP.

    Took 2 minutes to set-up and get connected to the internet. Used the software that came with it instead of windows software and had no issues.

    5 of 5 Cheap and Easy to Use Thursday, March 01, 2007
    Pat C. from Rochester, NY  
    Just what you need for quick and portable WiFi connections. No need to open the case, or invest in an expensive accessory that you can't reuse if you get a replacement computer.

    Ken from KenSolar.com  
    Windows doesn't control it that well, but if you use the included software, it works beautifully. I got mine to talk to my netgear rangemax router at 108Mbps too, so I couldn't ask for more. Excellent nic for wardriving too :) -ken
