    After reading a few reviews and having some BB Reward $$, I thought this would be a good way to hook up an old PC to the internet. The new location needed wireless and this old XP running PC needed an adapter. This one was consistent. Once I loaded the drivers it would work once, then never again. Spent just enough time on it to make the decision to return it. Got a different brand and works every time.

    Spend more money for a better one. This one disconnects constantly and fails to find any networks at all. The only solution is to unplug it and plug it back in.

    It seems like an easy installation, but the included software can't find the wifi adapter. I've tried the usual, rebooting, different port, start install over, etc. No luck yet.
