    Even though it says specially on the box that it works with Windows XP, it doesn't. Spent 2 1/2 hours on the phone with Netgear try to figure out the problem and they finally said it wouldn't work with XP! Very disappointed.

    The Wifi connector allows me to use an older computer in a remote portion of my house where there is no wired connection. I can go on line without going down to the main computer with the same speed as if I was wired to the modem. The Netgear Wifi adapter works very well.

    My wifi was weak and kept falling off just when I was in the middle o something important. I finally I decided to get a booster to, perhaps, help keep it on long enough to get my work done. The Best Buy guy steered me toward the medium grade netgear and it worked. Thanks

    My son has desktop gaming PC the WIFI signal was weak on just this PC everything else in the room including laptops XBOX ONE and phones had good signal. After Geek Squad determined nothing was wrong with the computer we invested in Netgear product. Long story short problem solved.

    This Wi-Fi adapter works great. I have an old computer I hooked it up to in an upstairs room and my main WiFi is in the opposite end of the house on the main floor and it picks up great. There's no lag time and very easy to install. The instructions are easy to follow.

    I tried this with three different computers, on two different networks, and could never sustain a connection. After a random amount of time, it would show "limited" connectivity, and then fall off completely. I returned this one, and will probably purchase an internal card.

    Everything in my new house is wireless, but we still had old desktop PC that wasn't wireless. Now it is thanks to Neatgear Wi-Fi adapter. Had an older Wi-Fi adapter from another manufacturer that worked very inconsistently. My new adapter has been working well over a month with no problems whatsoever.

    I bought this when the wireless feature went out in my laptop. The cost to repair was going to be several hundred dollars and this quick fix was only $50. Its a little bulky, but works for what I need.

    I bought this because the wireless capability went out on my laptop. However, this adapter did not work but I think it was due to a problem with my computer, which is old, rather than the adapter itself.

    I bought this adapter for a family member to use for her desktop to get on the Internet from two rooms away, because running an ethernet cord is impractical. It was easy to install and she has had no complaints about it. I rely on Netgear devices for my family's Internet needs.

    Thanks to this device my computer now has wifi. Speeds are pretty fast if their is not a lot walls or desks and stuff in between the device and your router. If their is then your speed will hurt but I get a solid connection from a good distance away.

    This device made an old workhorse but out-of-date HP net worthy. Did not give it any tests as to distance from source, etc. Just plugged it in and it works. Not fancy, just works. What else could one want?
