older version, but matches what I had., July 30, 2008
By W. Oplinger
Fast service and no problems with product. This is an older version, Wireless-B, but I wanted to match it with one on another computer I already had been using. It was a cinch to set up and works fine.

good but not great, July 16, 2008
By Mark Isaksen (San Jose CA)
I like Linksys a lot but I'm a little dissappointed in the USB card adapted. I run my laptop that has built in wireless side by side with my desktop that doesn't. I get 54mbps on my laptop but only 11mbps with my desktop.

Customer support is non-existant, March 31, 2008
By x4livin (Texas)
I got online with customer support and was told based on my system(win98) on an older pc I needed this adapter. I got it here and could not get it to work, tried calling for days..all times of the day to reach customer support..never an answer(lots of automated stuff) Wound up using it on a laptop instead, it gets really crummy reception even in the same room as the router. Loses signal frequently during gaming. I'm going back to wally worlds belkin. If you get an 'N'..it works great, they just have to be replaced about once a year from burnout.

Need v2.5 or v3.0, March 24, 2008
By D. Reynolds
Not a Review.
For sellers: please put the version number in the comments.
I have been looking for v2.5 or v3.0 for a while and can't find it because most sellers don't list the version.

Won't work on XBOX 360, December 26, 2007
By Devin D. Eller
Despite the reviews found here, this device does not work with Xbox 360. I spent an hour on the phone with the Linksys Tech service people to finally find out that this is not compatible with Xbox 360.

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.

forth, October 24, 2007
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

By Laisha Rowel

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.
