The installation was easy once the card was seated correctly. The instruction CD was enough to get the card working properly.
However, the Dell Desktop using this Linksys Wireless-G cannot connect to the Internet. for three years this product has worked. O.k. Spoke with the Netgear folks, they DO NOT speak English very well - that was fun and time-consuming. Recently our Apple AirPort router died, so we replaced it with a Netgear "N" Router. This router is working fine for two of our home computers (both Apples). The problem was not solved and they said to call Linksys who informed us that our Warranty was up (we knew that).Right now we see Netgear working (service stinks.)., and Linksys has worked but.what to do. Anyone have this issue.
It couldn't have been any simpler. Popped it in the machine, turned it on, found the wireless network and set up the security. Has worked like a charm ever since.
I bought this card a couple of weeks ago, and since then have had it installed in two different desktops. It has worked fine in each application. The hardware and software are both easy to install and work fine. I'd recommend this device to friends.
The card works but DO NOT INSTALL the software that comes with it.Install the care (machine off) turn it on and let windows do its thing. If it needs a driver put the CD in and point it to the driver. DO NOT INSTALL the software.The software eats up memory, refuses to turn off, would not uninstall (even in safe mode), randomly lost network connection (even though it said it was fine), and resulted in many other problems in the registry and network devices.Good work Linksys, or Cisco.
