Tiny wireless N for a great price
13 July 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase
This is a great little adapter. It gets pretty good reception throughout my apartment and in hotels that I've been in. I haven't really seen how far it will go but where I've gone it's been perfect. The d-link software is pretty seamless, and very unobtrusive. All you see is the little taskbar icon pop up when you boot, not some huge splash screen like the belkin I had previously.
On the downside, while at Origins game fair there was a public 'g' network that it could not connect to. Once I removed it and used my laptop's native 'g' connection I connected with no troubles. The d-link just wasn't having it. Everywhere else I've been it connecting quickly with no issues though. The other downside is that after using it a while it gets pretty hot to the touch. Doesn't affect it's performance, just something I noticed.
Pros: Tiny, Unobtrusive software, Good range
Cons: It gets hot, Sometimes has trouble with non 'n' networks

Very Good Wireless N Adapter
27 July 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase
This wireless N adapter is small enough not to get in your way when using your computer.It fits snug in the USB port.Has a blinking Blue light,that may bother some people but I don't mind it.Only problem is it heats up and gets really hot, especially the part the goes in the USB. Gets good speed and fast installation.

Easy Installation on Windows 7, but not on Vista
11 Aug 2011
Great little device for my spare desktop computer without wireless capabilities. Besides the great price, I do like that I have great reception considering my wireless router was 2 rooms away, it has a small footprint, recognizes my wireless printer and is fast. Now my experience trying to load the drivers and software. Now, majority of you have Windows 7 out there so installation is or will be easy, but for those that have Windows Vista like this Dlink went on, you may experience some major problems. I followed the instructions deligently, but the darn thing won't work. I mean it says "device is working properly", but will not connect to the internet at all, it just flashes steadily. I was fed up with the Dlink support calls all going to foreign countries where most of them I couldn't understand or they couldn't understand English very well. I was ready to ship the little #$*@^# back to Amazon. For some reason Vista limits Administration protocols and doesn't load the necessary drivers properly. However, before returning the Dlink back for a refund, try this. 1)Uninstall the drivers and the software for the Dlink, 2) re-boot your computer to safe mode by clicking the "F8" key repeatedly when the screen turns dark (you'll know when you're in safe mode because it'll say so), 3) Re-install the software driver CD and follow the instructions again (there are no Adminstration protocols/restrictions in "Safe Mode"), 4) Remove your CD and re-boot the computer normally and it should now work normally. What took me hours to figure out will take some of you 5 minutes, try it. Other than that I love the fact that I can print in another room wirelessly, search the internet wirelessly and I don't need to see a cable running throughout the hallway to access the router. It works great!
