Great adapter.......2006-09-25

Purchased one to replace a Linksys USB adapter that was causing problems. This is a great device. It worked so well I've replaced other Linksys PCI adapters that were okay, but not great. I now have 3 of the Belkins running and haven't heard a peep from them since.

Signal stregth is much better that the Linksys PCI adapters could provide, even with high-gain antennas.

Be sure to upgrade the firmware for WPA and improved reliability.

Good Product.......2006-08-30

I used this to connect an aging G3 Mac to my wireless network at home. Plug and play and has worked fine with no issues since. Seems like a good way to add wireless to any machine with an ethernet port.

Wireless Link Access Extension.......2006-08-25

Just as advertised. No configuration, plug and go. Only issue I've had, periodically during periods of non-use, device will need to be reset to continue. ie. when I come in Monday from a weekend. However, meets expectation and happy.

If it work - great, If it doesn't - watch out.......2006-08-11

Well, after a fair amount of prodding and poking - I've got it working. Here's the deal:

I bought this to provide wireless conncetivity for a Mac Mini that wasn't equipped with an airport card. While I love Mac's - the other options (USB wireless, etc) generally are problematic.

The setup software that comes with the unit is Windows only so I had to fall back to the web-based setup system. This requires various jiggering with your IP addresses and such to allow you to connect to configure the box. Once you're in the configuration system - expect a pretty darn lean experience. In fact - there is actually no way to know if you have connected to your router/access point at all. You're forced to go back to the client machine and see if the connection is working. This is a serious hassle when the Belkin is set up for a different network range than you are trying to configure it for.

So, dragged out the windows box and got it configured. But - no joy. I can ping to my hearts content - but cannot resolve domain names. For some reason the box does not pass the ID of the DNS server back to its client. Once I figured that out and hard coded that in the Mac - all is looking good.

So, I'd say if you're using Windows and this works out of the box - you're golden. If there's a problem - expect to be doing a LOT of black box troubleshooting.

And, it's kinda ugly as well.

Sigh.

Great product. Worked right out of the box........2006-05-05

I have a wireless network connected to the internet at home. I wanted this adapter for a laptop that was having problems with its wireless card. I followed the easy setup instructions - basically just plugging everything in, and was connected to the network and internet right away. Works great!
