Amazon.com Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description  | The NETGEAR WG511 Wireless-G PC Card offers: - 802.11g wireless networking capability.
- Backwards compatibility with 802.11b wireless networks.

|  | | The NETGEAR WG511 Wireless-G PC Card makes it simple for you to provide wireless internet access to your notebook computer, letting you surf the web, check email, and chat online without the need for cables. 
An antenna is built in for portability. View larger. | Easy Setup
The WG511 is a PC Card and requires a Pentium class PC with an available 32-bit CardBus slot for installation. It supports Windows Vista and is also compatible with Windows XP, 2000, 98SE, and Me. Setup is as simple as inserting the card into the slot and installing the included software. A built-in stub antenna helps you receive a strong signal for the fastest possible speeds. Fast and Secure
The NETGEAR WG511 supports the 802.11g protocol standard for speeds up to 54 Mbps and a longer range than previous-generation 802.11b adapters. With a good connection, you'll notice the difference right away as you'll be able to stream high-quality music without any hiccups and load videos much faster. Downloading files is up to five times faster than it was with 802.11b. Since 802.11g is also interoperable with 802.11b, you don't have to worry about whether or not you'll get a connection at specific airports and hotspots; the WG111US will automatically detect the network and allow you to connect to it at the highest speed possible. The adapter supports 40/64-bit and 128-bit WEP encryption for security so you don't have to worry about anyone eavesdropping on your emails or stealing your passwords. The included software makes managing different WEP passwords a breeze as you can set up different profiles for each location you frequent, saving yourself the trouble of having to type in encryption keys each time you connect to a hotspot you've already used. The NETGEAR WG511 Wireless-G PC Card is backed by a 1-year warranty. What's in the Box

it is and does what its' supposed too! easy to install and painless to connect any router I have tried so far. Fast enough for all I ever need to do.
Perfect for the Job March 26, 2010
James R. Maclean (Seattle, WA United States)
After several disappointing experiences with WiFi adapters (e.g., see my review for the Sabrent PCI-G802), I tried going with a PCMCIA-based version. This one worked perfectly and with very little effort. One of the most satisfying products I've ever bought from Amazon.
Very Pleased With Purchase January 7, 2010
David G. Vester (Norfolk, Va.)
I wanted a wireless laptop card to use in a very old computer using Windows ME as the operating system. After some research I discovered that not many cards claimed to work with ME. I ended up ordering the Netgear WG511NA Wireless G Pc Card. The delivery time was prompt, as always, from Amazon. I installed the included software, plugged the card in and was instantly on the internet. No problem with installation and no problem with the card. I highly recommend this card to those who have an older operating system.
Easy install- works great November 30, 2009
Pop S (Oak Ridge, Tn USA)
This is the second or third of these units I have bought over the last ten or so years. They go in easy, connect easy and are plenty fast.
I'd give them four starts, except I have to replace them every two or three years.

Received the card - a little later than expected - Amazon was great - an actual person corresponded with me - and they refunded my shipping because it was late.
I am going to use Amazon more often - they have great customer service. The card works just fine - had some initial trouble installing it - because it was an older Notebook - the CD drive was not reading on the notebook - Copied the installation to another PC and tried using a flash drive to transfer the installation software to the older Notebook - the older notebook only had USB 1.x, and would not accept the flash drive, finally emailed the installation software a file at a time to the older notebook - saved the files and ran the installation software from the older notebook's hard drive - it installed just fine - so after a great deal of time and trouble caused by my older equipment - the card and installation software worked very easily, even on an outdated notebook.
