This wireless card has a good range, even thru walls - and maintains connection and speed without any problems.
. After installing it in my IBM Thinkpad laptop, I found that the laptop would no longer go into standby (sleep) with the adapter present. you may just be throwing $20 plus shipping and hours of your time down a rat hole. I bought this adapter from Amazon last week. Further on-line investigation suggests that the Linksys driver does not properly implement Microsoft's NDIS driver standard in the area of device power control, and hence blocks the standby operation.Linksys' driver for this device was last updated over two years ago, although a search shows that numerous other purchasers of this device been have complained about the standby problem, as well as the ineffectiveness of Linksys customer service. As a retired Cisco exec, I am truly ashamed of the shoddy quality of this device software.
Works wonderfully. Bought this for an old laptop that didn't have built-in wi-fi. Popped it in and worked right out of the package. Great price from Amazon.
the linksys adapter is brand new and was a very good bargain, It works great.
I am very happy with the Linksys product. I replaced a D-Link wireless G adapter with the Linksys WPC54G notebook adapter because I was very unhappy with the D-Link. It constantly dropped my internet connection even if the signal from my router was strong. It maintains a good connection in the same environment where the D-Link failed. I recommend it.
