 great signal August 2, 2010

This is a great device to replace a laptop wireless card or give a desktop wireless access. The product was easy to install and the wizard quickly located my wireless router and allowed me to connect to it. The whole thing is quite hassle free. My signal is consistently strong since I started using it as a replacement for my internal wireless adapter for my laptop.
The only issue I've had is that the adapter gets really hot and occasionally, after waking up from standby mode the laptop doesn't detect the usb wireless adapter. That may be an issue with my computer.
Generally, the adapter is an inexpensive and useful product that does it's job satisfactorily.

Worked ok at first then started randomly disconnecting. I have XP and I found out after much troubleshooting that this was the reason my computer kept freezing!!! Complete freeze no ctr+alt+del had to manually turn off my system. Spend the money for a nicer better one. Look at all the bad reviews, DO NOT BUY!!
Doesn't work and merchant won't allow returns March 2, 2010

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.
