    works fine but tough installation

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    The WNDA3100 works well, but the installation directions and recommendations were absolutely horrible. It took a combined six hours, over three days, to get it working after I rebooted the computer. After restarting the system, it would not connect to the wireless NETGEAR RangeMax Next router. In the installion guide, the instructions recommended using the Neatgear Smart Wizard to setup the wireless adapter during install. It was this advice that appears to be my issue. After installing and uninstalling too many times to count, I went with Windows XP (SP2) to configure and my wireless adapter now automatically connects. Some notes: Why do device manufactures direct you to a web site if you are installing one of their wireless connection device? They need to include 1-800-anumber in their installation guide tech support section (real customer support) - vice referring to a website that I could not access. :-( Secondly, I had it running once and got a blue screen of death. Seems to be an issue with older versions of the device driver. I had to right click my computer, search for the WAN device, manually remove it and reinstall the software to get the computer to recognize the device....would not recognize the USB device until I manually deleted the USB device and then deleted the Smart Wizard software and reinstalled it. I am sure over time I will enjoy this device, but am very disaapointed with how the install went....and I have intermediate level experience in computer and component installs. For now I would only recommend this device with caution, since it was such a pain in the A$* to install. I hope this helps with your install.

    Works great once it has been installed

    Difficult to install, required a call to tech support, but the agent was knowledgable and walked me through the installation process. The installation CD was useless because the computer had to be reconfigured three times. Make sure they take your phone number and get theirs as well as their agent name and number in case you get disconnected. If they don't give it to you, my experience is that they will be rude and will disconnect without helping you. I had to call tech support more than once for both the router and the USB connector and 5 out of 7 agents were helpful, the other 2 were rude and obnoxious.

    This adapter is used to connect a PC in another room. Works perfectly and does the job with Skype, which is why I bought the PC.

    Not much to say, it's a wifi adapter and it does it's job well. It manages to pick up a signal through two concrete block walls and a garage door.
