Old Reliable, April 10, 2008
By C. Sharp
I bought this a couple years ago. Didn't use it for the first year or so because I ended up not really having a use for it. Plus the first time I tried to set it up, like the others who have posted, I thought it was limited to one of 2Wire's gateways. After aquiring an older iMac, it was a cheaper route to wireless internet than an airport card at the time, so I gave it another go. The instructions are quite confusing, but I was able to get it to work with my Netgear RangeMax Super G router. You can manually configure these, it just takes some patience, and a couple times at reading the directions and messing with the software. I thought it would be slow, but with it's b+ 22mbps capability, it was much quicker than expected, and seemed to match perfectly with the speed of the Rev. D 333mhz iMac I hooked up to it. I've been using it on an off between my Playstation 2 and the Mac for the past 2 years and it hasn't failed me once.

This product is designed to work best with a 2-Wire router, which I also have. As promised, the setup took no time and it worked instantly.

2Wire Wireless Ethernet Client/Gaming Adapter, January 15, 2008
By Mr. Weegee (Land of the Heartless)
This device is very simple to set up even though its confusing directions tempted me to limit it to 4 stars. To play Xbox 360 online or connect another device to the internet through this Wireless Client you're network would need to include a 2Wire HomePortal or OfficePortal. Note: This device can only be setup on the computer directly connected to the HomePortal Modem. Connect the Client to the HomePortal via ethernet cable, plug it in, and the CD-ROM recognizes and automatically configures the Client. The Client is then connected to the gaming console and plugged into an outlet and there you have it, online gaming at a fraction of the cost of the 360 wireless adapter. The only catch being that it's only compatible with a network using HomePortal hardware.
