Average rating - (more reviews)

Rating: - Complete tat

I'm not in the habit of making comments but my experience of this has pushed me over the edge. This product is completely unfit for purpose. I am an IT professional and I spent 3 hours trying to get this working for a client to no avail.

I'm also rather suspicious of the good reviews of this product - they all seem very off pat.

Rating: - Do not buy if you have Vista and more than 2Gb of ram

This product will not install drivers if you have Vista and more than 2Gb of ram installed. Netgear's own website says that this problem has been resolved but it hasn't. The fact that they are selling a product that they know has issues is a concern. Simply do a search for the product name and code 10 on the internet and just look at the masses of people who have had the same issue.

Rating: - Possible Incompatibility

The Netgear Wireless card has proved to be ineffective as though wireless contact is minimal it's strength does not allow interline contact.
Does the Netgear Wireless card to a BT Home Hub prove incompatible?

Rating: - Avoid this...

I have installed and used a number of wireless cards and this was by the far the worst. Specifically bought this to go with a netgear router but ended up having constant trouble and very poor peformance. After plenty of tinkering, installing of different driver revisions, replacing antennas and searching forums I eventually gave up and replaced it with a cheap edimax card and have had no problems ever since.

Rating: - Avoid

Avoid this product. The drivers are a joke, Netgear's website is a joke. Google the product name and check the forums. NB If you are offended by bad language get someone else to google and give you the gist of it.

I now have a Belkin Dongle and it's a beauty!
