Advantages: 'Free' if you buy the DSL G604T :-) Disadvantages: Becomes very hot, relatively large for a USB dongle
I bought the DSL G604T router/ADSL modem/firewall/WLAN hub in mid 2005 (see my review of it in Ciao) and the DWL G122 came as part of the kit. Given that the kit cost me £58 and the DWL retails at ~£25 separately I consider that a very good deal :-> .
I won't include the specifications here as that would be to just duplicate what is already listed in the Ciao product overview (I've checked it).
What you get in the box:
1. The dongle.
2. An extension ... ...the dongle
3. Manual and CD
The dongle is larger than you may expect, so may not comfortably sit in some USB ports if space is limited ( I could not but help compare it with my Bluetooth dongle, which you will find I've also reviewed in Ciao). It also gets very hot in use so again the proximity to other things may be an issue in your application. The fact that it gets hot implies to me that it must be consuming a considerable amount of juice, so ...

Advantages: Fast install; Included extension cable Disadvantages: Problems with Windows 2000; Bulky dongle
...I brought this with the D-Link DI-524 router and had no problems pairing them up. I'm currently using it about 30ft from the base station with one solid wall in the way and usually have very good signal running at the best possible rate of 54Mbps. I do use the extension cable and have found this to be a great advantage. It increased signal from good to very good and occasionally excellent. This helps get it away from the back of the computer and ... ...interference! D-link did have some trouble with the dongle as is wasn't put in all the packages, i had this problem but if you call customer services they will send you one and should receive within 6 weeks.
The dongle itself is quite long at about 2.5 inches by 1 inch wide. So can be an obstacle if using a laptop, or need your desktop to fit into a tight area. I have found the rate to vary and has its peak times and occasionally drops for no apparent ...

Quick review of D-Link AirPlus G DWL-G122 Review ofD-Link AirPlus G DWL-G122by
pc744
I was given the d-link dongle dwl-g122 and hub by a friend so I don't have any comment regarding the price. The WIFI adapter was really easy to use and loading the drivers a breeze. It links onto my SKY router with no problems. I am using the dongle via the cradle on an old laptop and also on a 5 year old 'TIME' computer. I would definately recommend the d-link adapter dwl-g122.
