Better than expected . I ordered this adapter to put into a low profile pc, based on the picture, figuring i could cut down the tab to fit since there was nothing in the discription about low profile slots. To my suprise, the unit shipped with a low profile adapter which is changed by removing two small screws and changing it. The installation was smooth and flawless, the computer immediatly recognized the adapter and when I inserted my network card it was just like using a usb device. So far the mother board has not fried or shown any indication of problems.

very thanks.
good card . card works great thanks to it I can use my 802.11N network adapter from old laptop

Cons Review
smoked my pc . I was nervous to order this due to the low price, and lack of reviews, you know the old adage you get what you pay for. In the end my cheapness won out and I ordered two. I installed the first in a remote PC and after a little fiddling it worked great. Encouraged by the great results with the first I installed the second in a different but identical remote PC and got it working but the connection was really slow. When I tried to shut down the PC I got a popup that there was a problem with the adapter, then it shut down. I restarted the PC and it seemed fine and pressed for time I left. The next morning the PC would not start and turns out the motherboard was toast.
