Linksys WUSB54G Wireless-G USB Adapter Reviews

It took me two weeks to get this thing working, and then when I almost had the driver installed, the computer crashed. Then I got sick of windows and installed Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron. Never had any problems with Ubuntu on my laptop, but this was a headache. You can probably find a better product for the same price, just keep looking. Footnote: While trying to find drivers, I stumbled into several other owners with similar problems, and one posted a letter from Linksys in response to an inquiry about Linux support, and Linksys replied that this product was intended for Windows, no Linux or Mac. Though there was a wall in the way, I wasn't very impressed that it only got a 30% signal from a router 8-9ft away. I originally had the WUSB54Gv4 Linksys adapter on an XP desktop, which worked okay.

 

A friend reocmmended the Linksys WUSB54G Wireless Adapter. It works great. No fussing with screws. This will make it very convenient if I need to use it on another computer that doesn't have a wireless card. However I had a PC on the far end of the house. Its not something I like to do.

No opening the box. Just follow the instructions on the CD and plug the device into a USB port. I dreaded the idea of opening up the box to install a card. I had purchsed a Linksys router and set up a wireless network in my house.

 

I have a new computer with windows vista when i pluged the linkyes wireless adapter into the computer it cant detect what it is i down loaded the cd it came with and when its done down loading it wont open to set it up so im guessing it just wont work with windows vista im so frustrated i hate to have order another one or somthing differant ugh.

 

It was returned and I had to pay to return it. This product was shipped with a copy of the installation CD. It would not install properly.

 

I am very pleased with this purchase. Works great and keeps connected all day. I give it 5 stars. Originally i bought the compact linksys adapter but was disappointed with the signal strength. I think this model is better because it has an external antenna as apposed to the internal antenna on the compact model. I bought this wireless adapter to connect a pc in my office.
