It works awesome but the problem was it kept kicking my son off wifi something to do with the cord. The problem was I had geek squad hook it up so when I went to return I had to print off the receipt and I didnt realize it had a cd with it (not a big computer geek so I didnt know anything about the cd). Drive 30 miles to tell me I couldn't return without the cd so had to buy a new one and still need to bring it back again. Works great but the cord issue.

While this item has decent reviews from various sites, I tried installing it out of the box and had issues, mostly with the accompanying software. It just wouldn't install on my system properly. When I tired a workaround, my internet access constantly dropped connection. Plus, it began interfering with my wireless mouse and keyboard. Returned the next day and went back to an Ethernet connection.

My home internet had an outage just before a critical deadline and the programs & files I needed were only on my desktop. I bought this device and activated the wireless hotspot on my phone and I was up and running in an hour. That INCLUDES round trip to best buy and shopping time. Should have bought this long ago.

This is a trusted brand name in our house; we have the Cox NetGear46 cable modem/router to go with it. This was easy to install and worked as expected right out of the box. Be sure to install the most recent drivers first...
Stay away from the Linksys adapter- it never worked for more than 10 minutes for us !
