1 out of 5 stars Doesn't work and merchant won't allow returns   March 2, 2010
Sumi Jones (CA United States)
This product is horrible. We own a Belkin and it works, unlike this wireless adapter. I thought I'd try this one since it's smaller and a bit less money, but it doesn't doesn't pick up any signal from our modem, and the modem is across the hall in the next room. In addition, I bought it from State Street Deals, and they won't let us return it because it's been opened. How else would we find out it doesn't work? Definitely NOT a great product, or merchant. I'd avoid both at any cost.

This product is one of the cheapest Wireless USB adapters available. I bought two. Software not included. Requires purchaser go to netgear and download software. I had issues with install on one computer, but I resolved it. Good Deal.


1 out of 5 stars Piece of garbage   January 1, 2010
Elizabeth A. Fager
bought this wireless receiver at a local radio shack for about 40 bucks because i don't have a phone line in my room and i needed internet after i relocated my computer from the office to my room. It constantly drops internet, at least 4 or 5 times a day as bad as every 5 minutes sometimes. I cannot find patterns to solve the problem. I contacted customer service. That was even worse than the product. The only advice I got was that I needed to install the software over again the exact same way as the first time. That was after the person floundered for half an hour when I was trying to explain to him that YES, I do get internet with it. But NO, it is not steady and cuts out constantly. took that long all the while he kept telling me if i can't get any internet service it means i must have some sort of interference which i don't because its just through one wall 10 feet away and then he resorted to telling me to start over and sorry that's all we can do, can we help you with anything else today. Pathetic. Please don't buy this product. I wish i had just installed a phone line for less money and hooked up reliable corded internet.


4 out of 5 stars Most Effective!   September 30, 2009
JulianB. (Atlanta, GA.)
This piece works just fine, I was going to buy it from Best Buys but after talking to one of their representatives and he metioned that he had one and it was and has been very good and durable for years, my next move was to order it used at a reduced price to receive the service quality of a new one! I am not disappointed!


5 out of 5 stars External wireless adapter goes where traditional wireless can't go   September 26, 2009
Ginnytoo (Florida)
We had a small computer, called a ThinkCenter, and it was too small to hold a traditional wireless adapter. So, we purchased the Netgear USB wireless adapter. It works great! You can use it to instantly add wireless to any computer that has a USB port, including a laptop. You will not need to open up the computer--no tools needed. Just plug it in and you are ready to go, wherever wireless internet service is available.NETGEAR WG111 Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter (54 Mbps)
