D-Link wireless adapter I purchased this item just 4 months ago and was initially impressed as it was an improvement over my ever fading older adapter, it provided a better signal and no loss of connection.
However, this deteriorated very quickly over the past 2 weeks as it has been dropping out without reason but would reconnect when unplugged and plugged back into the USB port in the back of the PC or in the dock it stands in.
This short term solution worked for a few days, but last night the adapter gave up... more info
11 years?11 days! This adaptor worked brilliantly for about two weeks, then the connection became intermittent at best, with error messages telling me it had malfunctioned and was not recognized, and has now completely given up altogether. Very disappointed after such a promising start.
DWA-140 & Vista It won't work with Vista at all, even using the newer driver from D-Link.I connected for a max of 2 mins in the same room as the router. It will work with XP but you need to disable/enable manually everytime you turn your computer on if you want to surf the net. In other words, the kids cannot connect themselves. My Old Netgear G series adapter was much better & stable.
top quality - easy setup - strong stable connection took about 1 minute to have it fully connected. much better than the Netgear equivalent, which never held a connection for more than 15 minutes. has been permanently connected for over a week since first installed. nice heavy stand which will not move around on your desk, or you can plug it straight into the usb socket if preferred. RECOMMENDED
