I recently got one of these cards along with the matching Xtreme N router (DIR-655). To replace my current WiFi-G setup.

Ok so yeah, I got this cause it is a wireless N card and I thought it would work good. I also have the D-Link DIR-655 Extreme wireless router. the distance between the two is maybe 15 feet if you are lucky and still I get intermittent connection loss. I also tried a Belkin wireless N router and got the same issue. I have given up on fixing it cause it comes and goes but works more often that it doesn't and I can pick up wireless networks from 2 blocks away. For all I know the routers could be at fault. Other than that it is a great card and I am on my second one due to selling the computer the first one was in.

The software is good but is a real drain on the CPU since it stalls my Dual Core sometimes (right now as I am writing this) because it needs to find the internet connection .. it is good to find other internet but not good for your own..>?

For the price, speed, and range it is worth it. It is the best product on the market in my opinion. To those that complain about D-link support. If you can't figure out how to use this than you shouldn't be using wireless. By far on of the easier components to install.

The wireless connection was non-existant, and the computer that it was in kept on blue screening, on a brand new computer, fresh install. As soon as I disabled this card, or took it out, the computer was fine and ran perfect. I upgraded the drivers which did nothing. Returning this card tomorrow.
