Works Great - No Problems (with Caveat)

I purchased the WUSB600N wireless network adaptor to support my 5.5 year old Sony Pentium 4. The WUSB600N is the size of a large thumb drive and it uses a USB connection on one end. It comes with a USB stand for use with desktops but can also be connected directly to laptops.
Thus far, the unit has worked great but . . . I did not install the unit as instructed by the directions. Having had problems with Linksys software on a previous wireless card, I took a hint from another reviewer and I hooked it up and used the Windows XP install hardware utility to install the unit. Just use the driver off the Linksys install CD. I use the XP wireless network connection to manage it. The Verizon wireless G router is on the second floor and I use this in the basement with no connectivity problems.
I think the WUSB600N is great, the small size takes up almost no space on my desk and the USB format means I can swap it between machines. I am completely satisfied and recommend it - with the installation caveat.

Linksys WUSB600N worked perfectly for me.
Workstation: Windows Vista SP1 64bit
Location: 2nd Floor, Router (Linksys WRT54G v5) 1st floor.
1) Download latest driver from Linksys site. I never use the old drivers that comes in the box.
2) Plugged in the WUSB600N
3) Provided driver when Vista asked for it.
4) Open Connect To Network, added WPA2 Key
5) Started surfing the web :-)
I'm easily getting better performance out of this USB adapter then I got from my Card Bus Cisco AIR-CB21AG. Both are using 802.11g, not .11n

| I was hesitate to buy this item with all the negative reviews, but I was desperate. My wireless G adapter wouldn't work with my new computer. Ordered this. Received it overnight. Installed the software. Plugged in adapter. And it has worked perfectly since. I don't know what all the negative comments r about. |

I installed this on my computer with Windows Vista Enterprise in a few minutes. The system has good range and fast speed. It comes with a usb extension cable with a stand on the end that allows you to place the adapter wherever it gets the best reception.
Another great Linksys product. |
