 Picks up signals from the moon Jul 17, 2008
Installs quickly and easily. This was on a system that was on the extreme far corner of the house from the base/router. Before, I could not see the base from this machine. Afterwards with this card and the external antenna on the floor behind the PC I pick up the wireless LAN effortlessly. If I raise the antenna high above the PC I get my LAN, my neighbor's LAN, my neighbor's neighbor's LAN... and these are widely spaced houses on a rugged hillside. Works for me.
 D-Link G550 expected more Jun 23, 2008
It was to my surprise that I only got a poor signal from the D-Link G550 Wireless Adapter specially after all the reviews I read about it. My laptop pc that was right next to the antenna received a "very good" signal. So the problem had to be with the D-Link. and changing the position or direction of the antenna had absolutely no effect on the signal range.
Other than that the adapter and cd installation was smooth even with vista.
a BEAST May 22, 2008
I replaced a Linksys Wireless-N PCI Adapter WMP300N with this unit - upon scanning there were over two dozen more visible wireless networks with the D-Link than with the former unit - I connected to open networks that the Linksys couldn't even detect. The configuration utility is simple to use and responds quickly to changes. The antenna is a bit light and it fell off my desk while I was screwing it into the case. I highly recommend.

Excellent product Mar 30, 2008
This device works flawlessly with my D-Link DGL-4300 wireless gaming router. I use it mainly for my living room PC which doesn't do a whole lot, but these two devices get the job done! I don't have much technical info for you, but if you are looking for a good and reliable setup, this device along with the DGL-4300 are the best solution IMO. I have tons of issues with Linksys, especially their client software which is just hideous, which is why I researched and switched to this combination. You can't go wrong with these two!

 Doesn't Work with older Operating Systems Feb 27, 2008
I tried to use this with an Older computer that I have, which is running Windows ME. I know Windows ME sucks, but it also gives you a hard time when you try to upgrade. This is a second computer in my basement so it isn't worth the trouble. Anyway, check out which operating systems it will work with before you buy this product. I had to return it.
