Great Product - Windows 7 Compatible
Tech Level: high Ownership: 1 month to 1 year This user purchased this item from Newegg Pros: I purchased this adapter for home use with my desktop. I previously used this on Windows Vista 64 Bit with no problems and I am currently using it with Windows 7 64 Bit with no problems. I get 100% signal when being two floors up from the wireless router. The signal never drops or resets like some other adapters. For $10 there is no better option.

Surprisingly effective for the price
Tech Level: high Ownership: 1 week to 1 month This user purchased this item from Newegg Pros: Small, cheap, effective for most installations. Cheapest Vista-64 solution I could find.
Cons: Will jut out several inches from the back of your tower due to design and external antenna; keep this in mind if your tower is close to a wall. Not as much of a problem with a laptop as you'll have to remove it each time when you put the lap...

great unit for great price
Tech Level: high Ownership: 1 day to 1 week This user purchased this item from Newegg Pros: This thing is great. $20 with free shipping! I hooked up an external omnidirectional antenna ( ~ $18 ) and its DOUBLE the signal strength and SNR (measured with NetStumbler) than my Linksys WMP110 RangePlus PCI adapter which I paid like $70 for (at a brick and mortar retail place). I noticed the price has recently dropped ...

Plug and Play w/ Ubuntu 8.10
Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 month to 1 year This user purchased this item from Newegg Pros: Works out of the box with Ubuntu 8.10. Just plug it in, configure your wireless settings, and you're on.
Cons: Probably no fault of this device, but I'm not getting the range I was hoping for with this device. Same location with a Netgear Access Point or a Quickertek Quicky work fine. This doesn't really surprise me th...

Works good
Tech Level: somewhat high Ownership: 1 week to 1 month This user purchased this item from Newegg Pros: • Easy setup • Fits perfect on my Latitude D410 • Works perfectly with Windows XP • Works perfectly with Ubuntu • Low cost
Cons: • Doesn't seem to work with BackTrack (a security linux OS). Maybe a linux expert could get it to work, though.

Excellent!
Tech Level: high Ownership: 1 day to 1 week This user purchased this item from Newegg Pros: Small and inexpensive, shiny case. Works out of the box with BT2 and BT3, monitor mode enables flawlessly.
Cons: Seemed to have a conflict on Windows with Wireless Zero Config, just disable that and use the provided utility.
Other Thoughts: I wish I had known this was the card to get for backtrack! It's got a Re...

Cheap, well supported, good buy!
Tech Level: high Ownership: 1 day to 1 week This user purchased this item from Newegg Pros: Well supported in both windows and linux. Works well in a vmware/virtualbox guest since it's usb. Supports monitor/injection. Works right out of the box with Backtrack 4. Using it with a 16ft repeating usb extension cable. Bought this dongle as part of the combo with the external 9dbi antenna. It was a GREAT deal!
Cons: The cap...
