    Does everything I needed it to at a great price, much better than the USB dongle I originally had. Along with my 4 GB RAM upgrade I have to move to Vista 64, at least this manufacturer provides 64 bit drivers.      » READ MORE

    A 20 dollar wireless-G adapter. What's not to love? I don't use wireless on my desktop at home, but it's nice to have a contingency plan.      » READ MORE

    This thing uses the RT2501 chipset, i was a bit surprised since my linksys WMP54G v.4.0 that i bought for $60 a year ago uses the RT2500...what a rip that was, at 1st i was skeptical of how good a $17 adapter could be and i was gonna purchase another WMP54G for $43, but i am glad i took the risk. It's a really good chipset with 90dB Rx Gain and 16dB Tx gain on the 2501..not really sure about the 2500 but i am sure it would be inferior since 2501 replaced 2500. The only difference from the linksys is the weaker antenna..this adapter uses a 2dBi antenna vs the 5dBi antenna on the linksys      » READ MORE
