I purchased this product from Best Buy on sale for about $40.00 and I knew it would be a steal. I followed the instructions, step by step. I was on the internet in about 10 minutes. I was able to get great speed, security and the distance is awesome. I don't work for Microsoft either, I just know how to follow directions.

Anyone who rates this a 5 must work for microsoft. The wireless card is ok, but the router is absolutley worthless.

I had mine for over 90 days, so when I asked microsoft for help, they wanted a service ... Read More

Here in Pakistan, technology is just coming up. Networking is common but wireless networking is just round the corner. Brand new D-Link/Linksys equipment is available but quite expensive. An Access Point/Router with a laptop PCMCIA card (802.11b) costs about $160 here. So purchasing this Microsoft kit for only $39.88 was peanuts. Setting it up was a breeze! And in no time I was up and about, surfing the web (broadband connection) on my Acer laptop. I was in a state of ecstasy, roaming in different parts ... Read More

I ordered mine one month ago and I am just fascinated with this product. I can share a broadband connection across my flat and I even connected my Pocket PC to the network.
I highly recommend this item. Is cheap, is reliable and is easy to setup. Just don't forget to get the firmware update and install it before you start connecting computers to the network.
