Very easy to setup using the D-Link install CD indluded. Only took about 5 mins to be up and running secure at top speeds.. I am receiving 130Mbs using this adapter, much faster than the 54Mbs using my old adapters. It connects each time I use it with Windows XP, no problems experienced. I have it connected to a D-Link DIR-635 wireless N router. I reckon I would get closer to 300Mbs as advertised, but i have my router set up for mixed mode broadcasting as I have 54g adpapters attached to the router also, hence it broadcasts on N, G & B frequencies mixed... If the router was set to N mode only I think I would achieve closer to the 300Mbs - but other family members are still using the old G mode 54g adapters so I have to leave the router on mixed mode :(

All in all, I am very pleased with this bit of kit and it works great with the D-Link DIR-635 wireless N router. A bit of advice: if you already have a router, try to buy the same brand adapters for it - they will usually pair much easier and work better.

Works fine 8 Jan 2011
I bought this adapter for use with a Billion 7800n router. I'm running Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit. I didn't bother with the installation cd that came with this, I just went on Ralink site and downloaded the Windows 7 driver for it (as recommended by others that seemed to have problems with this adapter and Windows 7 64bit).
It installed ok but was showing up as 'disabled' in the wireless setup and I couldn't enable it no matter what. I went searching for an answer and found it: I had to access the adapter properties and uncheck 'NDIS 6 Filter' now it works fine.
A bit of work to do but I got there!

On receiving tried to connect to a variety of routers (3 separate manufacturers in all, D-Link, Netgear and finally a Belkin) using the required included software on windows 7 64 bit was simply a massive headache, refused to work at all. Removing all the nasty software the installer had insisted on superimposing onto Windows then manually adding the drivers alone saw it spring into life as it was supposes to through the normal Network Connections / Sharing Center interface.

Reasonable range but if its through a wall/floor or two (when is it not) don't count on more than 20-25 metres.

Other than that I cant rate this higher than 3/5, it does what it was supposed to but not exceptionally well nor awfully poorly. I am quite tempted to rate it 2/5 for the awful D-Link software however that imposes itself on the user but as this can be ignored/bypassed so long as you throw away the instructions its not worth marking down for this alone.

Device is excellent
The adapter itself is very good, a range as strong as my router, small, and a nice long connector. The software CD is garbage and should be thrown away - as with all usb adapters. Read more
