Fine product, but . . ., November 4, 2007
By D. L. Hymes
It's not the product's fault. I have another one that seems to work fine. But I didn't find out until I bought it that it's incompatible with Vista, so I couldn't use it on my new computer. A friend was happy to take it off my hands. My advice: if you're getting a new computer, research things like this before buying accessories . . .Linksys WUSB54G Wireless-G USB Adapter

functioning but out of warranty, October 30, 2007
By A. Renken
I had some trouble setting this up with my computer, so I called the phone number on the box. They told me they could not help me because the one-year warranty had expired, a few days after I bought it. I got it to work eventually and it has been working fine since. And I did get it for a good price, so it was worth it.

By James M. Joyce (Florida)
Worked well upon receipt. Became a 5 minute temporary wireless start-up connection when IE ver 7 was downloaded. After that practically useless; tried every method of wireless software option. Never got to file or printer sharing. Regards Jim

Good Product, October 3, 2007
By papatriplett1
I am pretty satisfied with this product. I use it for a very old computer in my daughter's room. The PC is so slow but the wireless connection seems to be fine. It is used very minimally but no problems.

Don't buy this for Windows Vista, September 30, 2007
By joe trick (Fords, NJ USA)
This device was presented as Vista compatible. As per Linksys it will not work on Vista 64 Bit and unless it is the correct version, it will not work on any Vista product

Works great with Win XP, September 24, 2007
By Mark Curran (Huntington Beach, CA United States)
I purchased for my Dell Dimension 8200 as I was running short of wired connections. Plugged into the USB connector on the PC, inserted the disk when asked and it works great. I recommend - for less than $16 with shipping, it can't be beat.

Not Vista compatible, September 16, 2007
By Bob B Sr (Hertford, NC USA)
This product works great under Win XP but won't allow a normal Restart or Shutdown under Vista. Great value if you have XP and don't need network speed above 11 Mbps

Gets it done, September 6, 2007
By Darksideenterprises (Houston, TX United States)
The Linksys WUSB11 performs exactly as advertised. It's held up it's part of the bargain in the network system. Great price for this product.

Simple, works as its supposed to., August 16, 2007
By mruseless (Highlands Ranch, CO USA)
This little gem is simple, plug-and-play, and just works. Don't bother to install the software that came with it, if you know anything about configuring wireless networks you don't need it. The software doesn't make it any easier if you are a novice, so again, don't bother with it.
Signal strength is very good, I've got the router upstairs at the other end of the house (about 50-60 feet away). You might have to have the antenna in the up position for max signal however. I've got it permanently set up for my HTPC (no room inside the computer for a PC-card network adapter).

Works with XP, not with Me, August 7, 2007
By Bob M (Centerport)
I purchased this item to be used with an older computer loaded with the Me oprating system. I installed it and got a connection to the internet, but the computer kept freezing up and rebooting. I installed it on my newer computer with XP. It worked fine. Linksys technical support was excellent.The Me operating system is not very good when it comes to installing USB devices.

Works Like a Charm, July 14, 2007
By James Cauthen (Birmingham, AL USA)
We purchased the WUSB11 for an IBM Infinity desktop system with 1gb of memory running XP Pro. It installed very easily according to the instructions and has worked flawlessly. And it had a great price.

A great little unit., June 27, 2007
By D. Jacobs (Florida)
Installing on a Gateway box with XP Media Center, I had no problems whatever. We were up and connected within minutes of opening the box. Considering the price, this was a great little unit.

Very happy they still provide this version!, June 26, 2007
By Viva Las Vegas (USA)
I am very happy they still sell this version. It is a great device to have when fixing or repairing older computers that don't support USB 2.0. It works flawlessly, easy to install, and can be portable since it doesn't need any external power source. It gets all it's power from the USB hub on your PC or laptop.

Performs fine if and when it works., June 20, 2007
By R. Sriram (Singapore)
This little box works fine when not using WEP or WPA. When I use WEP, networking dies after 150-200 megs of data transfer. When using WPA-PSK-TKIP it's even worse. My drivers are up to date.
This is a cheap way to get unwired, but I wouldn't recommend this for secure networking. It is just not stable enough.

BEAUTIFUL, June 14, 2007
By C. Alvarenga
This product is awesome! Very cheap yet very powerful! It's was plug and play for the most part. I just had to have my Windows XP Wizard look for the drive in the CD drive with the Linksys CD. After it was installed, all I had to do was match the Wireless Network Connection Properties with a another laptop which uses to the same internet connection. I was good to go after that with no problems.

Awesome, June 8, 2007
By Oliver Ayala (Houston, TX USA)
I bought this less than a week ago from the time I wrote this review. The adapter is simply awesome, its incredible. I just plugged it in and automatically a window came up with the wireless connections available nearby. There was really nothing to configure, just plug and play. I recommend this to everyone.

Worthless, May 29, 2007
By trikerskip (Vallejo, Ca.)
This item is completely worthless. The item is defective as told to me by Comcast cable technician when he was installing their wireless network.
