This product works great for me. I needed it for a 6 year old laptop that has never had wireless capability. Installation was super easy, it works consistently, the price was right, and delivery to my home was unbelievably fast. |

I bought a more expensive one and I had nothing but problems with it. This worked the first time and is still working great. I recommend this card to everyone. |

This unit requires 256mb of Ram in the PC. My old Toshiba laptop has a maximum of 192mb so this product would not work. This is not noted in the system requirements for this product on your web page. |

Attempted to set it up with windows controlling it, and was occasionally able to configure it for 54 mbps, but it rarely worked. Using it's trend software it worked consistently, but gave me 11 mbps (not so good). Bought a trend wireless N PCMCIA card from TD to replace it. Works great (300mbps) |

I had a Linksys wireless PC card and from across the house I would lose the signal all the time . So I decided to try the Trendnet wireless PC card. Well I have to tell you the signal is always very good and strong, haven't lost a connection yet. Great product, great price, great performance. would definitely recommend to a friend or a stranger for that matter. |

Worked fine with the provided drivers on windows 2000 (old laptop with only 64mb ram), was easy to setup. It supports wireless security. Has good range (getting full signal strength even if router is a good router is in the basement and around 70' away). Network selection application is ok and does not eats up CPU time. |

Cannot speak to the long term, but after one month we are still very pleased with purchase. Only negative for our install was SLIGHTLY reduced signal capture sensitivity compared to the USB adaptor this is replacing. That being said the unit woks fine for my wife's normal work areas. When capture failed, the DSL access point was two floors below at a rather oblique angle making signal absorption and blockage an issue. |

Quick and easy. Loaded the software, rebooted the laptop with the card installed, XP recognized the card and loaded the drivers. About ten minutes total time to install. Good GUI and a strong signal, just depends on how many users are using the hub while traveling. |

Installed on a older Dell Latitude CPX laptop. Router is located on the 3rd floor and this thing receives at 54mps in the basement. Can't beat that for the price. |

This product works great. I use it with an older IBM Thinkpad 600E which has a dual boot for XP and Me.The software went in fast and without issuse. It holds a strong signal and doesn't drop the connection. At a price of less than $10, the deal just got better. For an older laptop with a card slot this purchase is the thing to do. Now if we can only get a ''free Shipping'' option... |

I've had the unit for about a month. Works well from the garage and outside. Setup took three tries before it worked. I ended up letting WindowsXP manage the connection before it would work correctly. |
I picked this up to give an Acer Aspire 5100 Laptop a new Wifi Card. It's Drivers were easy to install.This card worked very well over some decent distances. The chipset is very flexible. This a great card for the price.
