Cons:
May not be usable with your OS.
Pros: Comes with cable. Small. Comment:
It is interesting that the first reviewer thought that this should have an RT73-based chipset, but but that he discovered that it was in fact a ZyDAS instead. My experience was different. According to what I could find on the net, it was supposed to be ZyDAS, but when I got it there was an Atheros AR9271 chipset in it. There is a driver being developed for that, but it is not ready yet. So unless someone is using a Windows system, this may not work. The model number will be the same, but what's in the box is an unknown until you get it home. |

Cons: It seems that the manufacturer changed chipsets at some point.
Pros: Comes with an SMA connector for antenna. Comment:
If you do a Google search on this device, it'll lead you to believe that it is an RT73-based chipset, but upon installation, I came to discover that it was in fact a ZyDAS instead.Either the online documentation is incorrect or there has been a change in chipset along the way.It'll work fine in Linux, but there might be a bug or two depending on your kernel version. |

Cons: Reception is still not that great. Antenna is also clumsy.
Pros: Better reception than some other USB wireless adapters Comment:
The high-gain antenna gives this product a little more reception than regular USB wireless adapters. However, it's nowhere was good as a PCI wireless adapter or even some of the built-in ones in laptops. |
One of the greatest wifi usb adapter I have ever tested.Signal is stable and give 11-13dbm more signal than the hold linksys wmp54g pci network adapter I had to compare it.it top the wifi 802.11G speed consistently on a "medium wifi density" area. The antenna seem to truly have 4db of gain.Driver are well written (For Windows 7) and the product look great.
