    4.0 out of 5 stars If you find it loses the connection ..., 16 July 2007
    By Andrew Thomas - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    If you are running this on a Windows XP machine and you find it loses the connection every 15 mins or so, you need to go to:
    Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Services and disable "Wireless Zero Configuration" on startup.

    This fix was suggested by Netgear themselves on the discussion forum on their site. It solved the problem for me.

    You also need to get the latest version 3.3 driver from the Netgear site.

    With these two modifications, my adaptor never loses its connection. Seems to be the answer.

    5.0 out of 5 stars GOOD SIGNAL & EASY SET UP, 28 Sep 2004
    I bought this together with Netgear's 54 Mbps wireless router (WGR614v4) to wirelessly share our broadband internet connection with the kids' computer.
    Once I had set up the router it only took a few minutes to install the adapter. Simply load the software, plug in the adapter and follow a few simple instruction. It located the network straight away plus another network which must be in the vicinty.
    The kids' computer is upstairs about 20m away with a thick wall in between. The signal strength is fairly good and my sons have been surfing merrily for 10 days without losing the connection once.(touch wood!)
    Setting up security with WEP (Wired Eqivalent Privacy) was also easy. I simply had to enable WEP on the router, type in a passphrase and 4 encryption keys were generated. The adapter's program allows you to generated the same keys by typing in the same passphrase.
    It comes with a 5ft USB cable enabling you to place the adapter in the best and safest position.
    The tranfer rate is a litle slow because the computer only has USB 1.1 capability whereas the adapter has USB 2 capability. Having said that it is still much quicker than dial up and the kids haven't complained.
    We haven't been able to share files and the printer yet but I think that's a case of figuring out how to confiqure Windows and the router. I'll submit a review of the router once I've worked out file sharing and ironed out a small problem with the laptop dropping connections.
    As far as the USB adapter is concerned it's thumbs up!!!

    3.0 out of 5 stars Doesnt play well with others, 21 April 2007
    By Mr. A. Bristow - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    I downloaded and installed the Vista drivers for this wireless adapter and i was online in no time at all.

    However, my connection promply disconnected as soon as I connected ANY type of usb Mass Storage device on another of my usb ports. iPod, USB Flash Drive, External Hard drive...... this usb adapter lost the wireless signal and refused to reconnect. I had to disconnect the other USB devices and reload the netgear software to get back online.

    I dont know what this thing does to the usb bus but it certainly doesnt play well with others.

    Anyway. I resolved the problem by connecting my Belkin powered USB hub and pluging the netgear adapter into it. Now i can use all my other devices at the same time as this wireless stick. I can only assume this thing uses a lot more power or just cant cope with other devices working on the same usb bus.
