    Piece of Garbage, November 19, 2005
By jackenloper (Parker, CO United States)
I bought this product from Microcenter. It cost 35 bucks.
It disconnects every 2 minutes (no, literally). And the highest speed i got it to run at was 2 mbps.

The worst thing is, it overheats very very fast (5 minutes) and just turns off.

Its a rip off, i am gonna go and return it tomorrow.


    Not good at all, May 6, 2004
By unknown
I am using SMC products since last 1.5 years,I was satisfied with all other SMC products,but not this.
Reason:
- Its just running @ 2MPBS speed, thought my router is supporting 11 MPBS.
- I called customer support, they are confuse too, asking all networking stuff to do again & again,but no luck. (SMC customer support is always better than N'gear & D'link)
- I dont know what to do with this 65 USD baby?
-also the size in the pictures look small,but its not real, size is larger than thumb drive.

Otherwise, i hv good exp. with SMC products only this makes me crazy, but thats OK
