    "Works ....Love it...It made me spend four hours trying to install the drivers then trying to get rid of the drivers as they were BSODing my Win7, then giving up and just taking it back to the store....I would recommend it for a computer that is within 10 or 15 feet of the router or in the same room but for a desktop that has several walls and some distance between the computer and the router I would suggest getting a free standing receiver that has its own base and can be moved around a little to get a better signal."

    "Love it...Love it....The card is excellent and very fast under Windows 7....So whenever it's Bright House that'sn't throttling me (speeds go down to 33 Mbps, again, I fully suspect it's ISP or dual router in house communication interference), this card almost literally performs exactly the same as a wired gigabit connection without the mess."
