Summary: Worked for only a few hours...
Comment: I purchased this product for use with my desktop computer (which does not include a wireless card, obviously).
It worked for a couple of hours, as advertised. But it stopped working after the first time the computer was turned off/restarted. The computer would recognize the USB adapter as being plugged in, but the adapter itself refused to recognize any wireless networks in range.
Uninstall and re-install did nothing.
Quick-install instructions are adequate, but the user guide and included software are in broken English and full of typos. The product looks cheap, feels cheap, and was unreliable. Returned for a full refund.
Very disappointed.

Summary: Very Good
Comment: So far so good, its working fine with an old laptop with Win XP.
Only issue I have is that, if you unplug and plug it back in when the computer is on it stops working. Could be a XP issue.

Summary: A good wireless adapter
Comment: It works well and is easy to install. Windows XP sometimes doesn't recognize the device after startup unless it's unplugged and then replugged again; but I think this is a problem more with Windows than with the device or the software that comes with it.

Summary: Really satisfied
Comment: Yap, I am really satisfied with this Wifi-Stick. The coverage with it is really well and it works flawlessly with WinXP & 2000, while you can either use the Windows Wifi-Managing-Software or install the custom CNET one. (Again I tried both, works both nice, though I go for the Windows-included software since I don't need the CNET-Stuff...)
The only downside I see is that it's a little bigger than other sticks I've seen, but I don't really care about that, since they're used for kind of stational laptops ;-)...
Full recommendation, especially at that price!

Summary: Worked for a couple of days...
Comment: i was very happy when i got it being that most other wifi adapters cost twice this much. it worked right after i installed the drivers from the cd that came in the box. after 2 or 3 days it just stopped working. this is more likely a software issue than the hardware because it was solved with a system restore. but behold the next day when it wouldn't connect. i did another restore and it worked but after another day i realized that it was just unusable.
