Product Description

Netgear WG511 802.11g Wireless PC Card - When using the Internet, you have the ability to freely roam websites with ease. However, accessing this vast network of information is still a wire-based affair. You must be at a fixed location, tethered to the wall, like a dog on a leash. Now with 802.11 wireless technology, that connection has been severed, allowing you to wirelessly access both the Internet, and other computers wherever you choose. This 802.11g PC Card fits into your laptop's PCMCIA slot, allowing it to connect to any 802.11g, or 802.11b wireless access point within range.

Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Works better than most others.......2007-06-03

I've learned a while back that the wireless connection is more temperamental then wired and the signal a lot weaker and more prone to interruptions. This pretty much is a fact regardless of which adapter you put in and the difference between a B and G is almost unnoticeable. The netgear is one of a few that is backward compatible with older operating systems. I use it on an older Sony laptop running WIN 98 and the connection is good most of the times. Hard to beat it for the price.

4 out of 5 stars Great Wireless.......2007-05-30

If you own the Netgear router for this card so that your network supports MIMO then you are going to love this card. I had some issues with the software until I realized that I needed to bypass the setup CD and get the drivers on the internet to resolve many issues. After I got it up and running then I've been gettin 108Mps through out the house on both floors and every corner. I was using a linksys before, but the MIMO seems to be the place to be until they get the "N" technology out in the market full force.

5 out of 5 stars The Best Service.......2007-05-07

I really like the fast, prompt, and couteous Service that I recieved.

4 out of 5 stars I have never had any problems with product........2007-04-06

This has worked very well for me. I have no frame of reference as to how a different model might work in comparison, but this model always worked perfectly.

2 out of 5 stars Weak Signal.......2007-03-31

Don't know if it's the card or the wireless router but have a weak room-to-room signal. Changing channels on wireless router and doing a router upgrade as offered by Netgear tech support did not help. Tech suppport did offer additional phone support which I have not pursued.
