Hardware is good SW not so good . I could not get the network connection when I used a WEB security passphrase in the connection manager that came with the product. Apparently the Belkin SW developers could not figure out how to convert the passphrase to hex equivalent like everyone else does. Once I used the right hex key, everything worked great. I had to use another application to make the right passphrase to hex key conversion. I used the connection manager that comes with the Hawking Hi-Gain(tm) USB Wireless-G Dish Adapter HWU8DD. This tool correctly converts a passphrass and stores it as hex value in the registry. Belkin Tech support told me to reinstall the drivers to resolve my connection issue, which actually was a waste of time and turned out to be the wrong solution.

Belkin ME1002-NB Wireless Notebook Adapter Reviews
Solid Wireless Card . This is a good card. It installed in a 10 year old laptop that didn't have internal wireless. You can ether install the driver and full Belkin Wireless client or just install the simple driver via Device Manager and let Windows manage your wireless networks and settings. I did the later and have had no issues so far with a couple of networks I've connected to. The card does feel a bit flimsy where the black plastic meets the metal card, so be careful not to break it off in the laptop.

Belkin ME1002-NB Wireless Notebook Adapter Opinions
Typical 54g Card for a decent price . What do you expect? It was perfect for the older laptop, no complaints. I love that I could use the driver on the cd through windows device manager and not use the software. Card does not stick out too much. (Update) After finding a Wireless N card at a local micro store, I must say that this card is very week in comparison. My client and I noticed that it barely picks up a strong router on the second floor, compared to half a block away on the wireless N router I paid 9.99 for.

Fine Adapter . This is a fast way to adapt WiFi to an older computer. This Belken unit is fast and very reliable. Seller provided good communications and fast delivery.
Wifi adapter . Quick and easy to install. Works perfectly. The wireless card in my husband's laptop died. This was the perfect solution and inexpensive too.
Great product! . Plug and play with Windows XP pro. Did use install disc and everything worked well. Took 5 minutes to install. Has great reception, picks up better signal than my other laptop with built in wireless card. Can't beat it for 12 dollars after shipping!
Adapter . I am very satified with this adapter. It is better than the adapter I had before. Easier to use.
