Cons:
cumbersome installation, weak signal.
Pros: three antenna look cool Comment:
I have Fortress FB02 and if you place the metal guard above the antenna, the signal disconnects completely.As well, you have to install the included driver on cd BEFORE you plug the card. |

Cons:
doesn't work with extreme amounts of interference (as with any other wireless antenna)
Pros: Good rangeFast connection Comment:
Overall, the signal is quite strong (router to antenna distance is approximately 20m, same floor, through several walls). On average I get signals of approximately 80%. I haven't been able to use the wifi on the desktop however due to the extreme amount of interference that goes on under the desk (limited space, powerbars and wires running everywhere).However, definitely a good buy if you have a clean floor/working area! |

Cons:
-No software tools but that could actually be a strength because some software tools can be very unnecessary.
Pros: -Was an amazing 45% off in recent sale-Very fast. Comment:
Well, it's cheap and it's fast. The only thing I haven't tested is local network transfer via wi-fi, but my internet connection is extremely fast so far - rivalling the wired connection I ran at my old home. Definitely recommend! |

Cons:
Signal isn't as strong as I had expected
Pros: Works fairly well Comment:
My old one broke down and I ended up grabbing this one because of the three antennas. Surprisingly, it gives me the same signal as I had with my old card with just one antenna, not that that's a bad thing since I get a decent signal through 2 floors. I do notice it cutting out for a second every 10-30 seconds when I play games though, but I can live with that. |

Cons:
signal is little weak but without interruptions , outdated drivers
Pros: Works very well, good price , wifi N Comment:
I got it to replace ASUS wifi adapter which was horrible , this one its much better , unfortunately there are G devices on my network so I cant test N speed but overall very good product.One more thing the device got recognized in Windows 7 as Ralink and CD drivers are too old go to http://www.ralinktech.com/ and download drivers from there |

I have had this PCI Wireless card for a few months now. The signal I use is over 300 feet away. I get a GREAT signal and speed and hardly ever drop connection. If you are having trouble with it do not always blame this card. It can be that the router does not work well with the card. So far it works great for me and if I need another for any computer I would buy the same thing ! |

I have had this card for a few months now and it has been nothing but phenominal! I get a 300 Mb connection and the installation was a breeze. Never have I experienced one dropped connection yet :) |

First and foremost never install the trendnet software. It generally does not work with wpa, or hold settings. Grab the driver from the cd using the update driver function in device manager. Use the windows wireless zero configuration and you will have a stable product. |

DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!!! I bought this card about 2 months ago to replace my wireless G card, and regreted it. This ''Wireless N card'' was 20ft away from the router, but still gave me a 40% signal at 45mbps, which is significantly less than my wireless G card! ''300mbps'' my foot! What's more frustrating is that I coughed up 50 bucks for this piece of crap! The h3ll with it! I returned the card for my money and spent LESS than half of it to get an internet cable. I did not want to drill a hole in my hardwood floors (that's the whole reason I tried to go wireless), but the cable was the only way I could watch streaming video without having to wait for hours. The cable works great! That's more than I can say for the wireless card. The card sucks, but TigerD is still the best! |

Great value - I was skeptical at first but after installing the hardware and driver, booting Vista and 2 minutes later being on my WLAN I'd buy TRENDnet again. |

When I saw the rebate offer on this, I quickly snapped one up. I switched earlier from a Linksys Wireless g router to the Trendnet TEW632BRP n router and was very happy with it's performance. The software trial it comes with too - Network Magic - is magic! Anyway - I replaced my linksys PCI wireless card with this beauty, and it works a treat. My router is on the 2nd floor, and this card is in the basement - strong signal always, plus it allows for better encryption instead of WEP. I am extremely happy with everything by TRENDnet - they have great support, great instructions, and very reliable products. GET ONE OF THESE!!! you will not be disappointed! |

I needed a new adapter for my daughters PC because her D-Link DWL-G510 adapter was horrible. I choose this adpater because it was on sale for $39 (with $20 rebate). I am using this with a LinkSys WRTG54 802.11g router. Unit installation was simple (although I had to insert the disk after the HW was installed even though I had preinstalled the SW per direction). Configuration was simple. I am now experiencing no ping loss (was at about 50% before, most of the time) and my throughput is excellent (about 400kbps avg). For me this was an excellent solution for a poor 802.11g implemenation at a reasonable cost. I am ready for 802.11n when I have the $$. |

I bought this along with the TRENDnet TEW-631BRP router and the TRENDnet TEW-624UB usb adapter for my other desktop. I also have a laptop with a built in 802.11g adapter and everything works great together! It was a snap to get up and running and to configure the WPA security. Thanks again TD! |

I bought this card to go with my Linksys n router. Together, they work GREAT!! I needed to update my linksys router firmware, but have had NO problems with the card. Download speeds are pretty close to download speeds with cable!! |
I have had mine for over a year and it works.Set in wireless N mode my average signal strength is 29-34% at 25' 1 floor and 1 wall away from router.The average link speed using wireless N is 39mbps.When playing games online the connection will drop frequently.
