Advantages: small, USB connectivity, solid product
Disadvantages: None

The D-Link AirPremier AG DWL-AG132 Wireless 108AG USB Adapter is small but does wonders for your WiFi needs. First, primary reason why I opted for this reciever is its USB connectivity. The PC I was going to you use this didn't have any available PCI slot so I have to go for this one. And I am pretty pleased with that decision. Being an USB device offers a lot of advantages.

...around different PCs or laptops. Signal for this is good. Speed is within specifications. Used it about 60-70 feet away from router and signal rating is between very strong to excellent. Though I have seen some that are stronger (PCI cards), you shouldn't have any problem using it within the house. Unit construction is pretty sturdy too. This usb adapter by the way comes with an 2-feet extension dock which comes handy if you don't want to plug it ... Read review

This is a very nice router to have compared to netgear. I have not had the same kind of problems with this router like I did with that one.

Advantages: Good bit
Disadvantages: finicky about angles

...your computer. However, with the D-Link Xtreme N PCI Express Desktop Adapter, It's gonna be a bit tricky to actually get the connection. This wireless card is super finicky about angles, which is sometimes hard to determine, considering where the connection is coming from. But once you find the angle you need, it gives a great connection, usually pretty fast. This card is actually pretty easy; Remove the side panel of your computer, along with the ...

...they don't even compare to Linksys in quality and ease of use! This model was choosen for it's ease of setup, previous ownership of this companys' product line, which personally I think are the best out there, and it's ability to handle many other wireless extension products..such as the media center adapter to run all my music to my main sound system in the home from my main computer. ...
