I hope the CEO pf Ciso is enjoying his ill gotten gains.the item never worked properly, and it seemed to be that you have to install the software first then install the item. Thank you Cisco. then is struggles to get a signal and the fight is never worth the results Ever since Cisco bought Linksys, product quality has gone straight downhill. Manufacturing quality has gone all plastic, all lights, software and such is downscaled and up went the price.
The antenna does not appear to be very "rugged" so be careful. Easy to install. Works well.
And since you cannot purchase just an anntenae, it is essentially a paper weight. This product should not be under a picture of a wireless card that has an anntenae. Even though the description says no anntenae, it is misleading.
The router is also a Linksys (WRT54) and it, too, has been performing for over a year with no problem. Despite several reviewers (on Amazon and other sites) asserting that this adapter would not work with Windows 98SE, in my case, it works flawlessly. Whew. No need to contact the dreaded tech support on this one. I installed the driver /software, inserted the card to a PSI slot, and it detected and connected to the wireless network instantly with no further ado. It's been a week and the Internet connection hasn't dropped once.
A replacement card has worked flawlessly ever since from a second story office to wireless router in the basement. behind the computer. I purchased a WMP54G for my parents computer to avoid running cable through their house. The first one worked well for about a year when it suddenly received no signal - acted like the antenna connection was bad - possibly due to rearrangement of cords, etc.
