Not for Linux September 6, 2010 Brian Kravitz (Ivyland, PA United States) This adapter is supposed to work well with Ubuntu, but I had nothing but difficulties with it. I don't recommend this at all.
Awful speed September 2, 2010 edrn867 I ran the speed test on my computer with adapter, it ran 0.4 Mbps. On my laptop right next the computer it ran 8 Mbs. That means this adapter is freaking slow! Don't buy.
Works, but antenna/receiver is not very sensitive August 24, 2010 E. Mitchell (Spokane, WA USA) The unit works.
I have it connected through a short USB cable to the back of the computer so that the USB dongle can be located away from the PC and "up in the air" about 2 feet from the top of the PC.
The access point is located about 25 feet away with one bedroom hollow wood door between it and the USB dongle.
Signal strength is usually 3/5 bars - sometimes 2 and sometimes 4. Link connection speed is typically 18 to 24 Mbps, with 18 more common.
And this is only 25 feet (8 meters) away from the AP.
Again, it basically works but seems to have poor receiver sensitivity. I would not want to use it for anything much further than this distance.
Works fine, no issues August 4, 2010 rookierookie (Viriginia) Great adapter, picks up signals from a modem on the opposite side of the house with 93% strength.
Works great even with USB 1.0, without any speed issues.
USB Wireless Adapter July 21, 2010 L. Solesbee (NE GA) Great for older laptops without internal wireless card. Works great and easy to configure.
