I bought this product (thought not from this source) to replace an irritatingly slow wireless card in a desktop at home, and I've got to say I'm totally happy with it.

It's just as simple as it claims. I unboxed the adaptors, plugged one in by the desktop and attached a LAN cable, did the same at the other end of the line to connect to the router, powered up, and off it went. Nothing else to do.

It's miles quicker than wireless. My wife, the primary user of the desktop in question, was being driven slowly bonkers by the painfully slow printing operations to a shared printer on the network (not surprising it was slow to be fair). Now she's happy: it just prints like it was directly attached.

Seems a really good product. It was up and running within a couple of minutes of unpacking and the connections speed seems fine. I have used this to replace a wireless network with dodgy signal strength. I wish I's done it sooner.

I purchased this item because i wanted to take my laptop to work. The software was easy to install. Also the manual was easy to follow.
However this item did not work. My computer could detect other networks, but it did not detect the Belkin connection???????? I tried it three times and even tried installing it in my neighbors laptop,no joy so I am sending it back to the seller.

This item is amazing, works really well and was set up in 10mins. Please remember you will need to install the Netgear devices in the same room to start. Makes it easier, give them both their own names and IDS that you want. Then seperate them to the rooms you want and you are good to go.

Well done Netgear, only complain is they should be a lot smaller and the net cable could do with being on the top of the device.

My aging Abit KX7-333R motherboard only has USB1.1 ports on, and having purchased an external HD I figured I should get a PCI USB2 card to connect it to.

The Belkin card fitted into a spare PCI slot easily, WinXP recognised it and installed the drivers for it, and that was that! Since then I've not had a single problem with it. I've connected three USB2 devices to it at the same time and copying and moving files from them all worked just fine. I've had no crashing or system instability with the card, and all in all I have found it to be faultless.

If you need a USB2 card for your computer you could go for a cheap one, but why bother when this one is only marginally more expensive and works so well?

This is rubbish!

It works intermittently, fails for no reason and then won't reconnect. Sometime it works for days on end, others it goes in 10 minutes.

30% of the time you can unplug / plug the cable in again, the other 70% of the time you have to restart the computer. There is no other way.

The router's fine it's just the USB adapter.

The phone support offers no help / doesn't acknowledge there's a flaw with this product.

Bought this as Belkin appear to be reputable brand. Whilst not an expert, I am reasonably PC literate and have set up wireless networks (successfully) before. I installed it as per instructions. It went like a dream and I was on the internet in minutes. That night I switch off PC. Next day, switch on - no wireless connection. Try to open Belkin software and it tells me to connect the adapter 1st - it is already connected! No matter what, software won't open and cannot get a connection. Tried various things, including uninstalling and starting from scratch, but no joy. It's going back for a refund tomorrow.

This started brilliantly, outperforming all previous adaptors for range by far - however, when the first one went faulty Big Box were superb with their service and replaced very quickly - six months later second unit has failed. Big Box offering refund as they don't have a suggested replacement - this is a shame as they have been superb but it would be foolhardy to try a third BT Voyager 1055 with this reliability record.

this is a product that either works or it doesnt; but you only know it doesnt after hours of wasted time on the phone at your own cost. The support is incredibly bad - they must get paid by how much time they keep you on the phone. after hours of failing to solve the problem they say you will get a callback but dont. In the end they blame your wiring despite the fact other products work. One tip dont phone use the email support it costs you less and you dont waste as much time.Netgear XE102 Wall-plugged Ethernet Extender Kit
