Belkin 802.11g Wireless Card

Advantages: No more cables
Disadvantages: non

...I got three of these to set up a wireless network for my home computers and link them through a Belkin wireless router. You can obviously use these cards on one machine via a router, and you have no cables running all over the place. The installation is very easy, just fit the card in any spare PCI card on your PC. If you use XP operating system, the card is found on restarting your PC and asks for the install CD, the software is installed in seconds. You can use the network wizzard in XP to set up your network, its an easy and intuative setup. Its not only the internet you can share, you can share files via a "shared files" folder that is created during setup. This is handy if one of your machines has large hard drives, where bulky files can be stored and accessed by others on your network. You can also share a printer...

Review of Netgear WG111 Wireless-G USB 2.0 Adapter

Belkin wireless G USB Network Adaptor

Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: Not enough information on software or packaging.

...and being a 'G' 802.11g If gives a picture of the adaptor and the holder so you can move it about for the best reception. Mostly like a lot of these types of products the box contains a lot of air with a CD and the adaptor, a holder and some more blurb. There is also a phone number for free technical support - vital as you could be on the phone to them for hours. Overall I am relatively happy with the adaptor, I have the internet on my computer although it disconnects me and I have to 'repair' it everytime I log on. I feel that the software could of been more useful and the information on the box could of saved me a lof of grief. The technical staff were very good being as helpful as they could be, however in my case I needed help from a techy know-how friend. I hope this information will be helpful to others....

Wireless Usb 54Mbps G Compact

Advantages: Plug and play, easy to use.
Disadvantages: It is external, meaning not inside your computer.

...This product is very reliable great for people on the go, or even at home. Good office use and offers speeds that will satisfy anyones needs. There is only one inconvenience though, the fact that it is external. Since it is external there is always a better chance of it breaking, or being lost. Linksys is the leading networking brand and is very reliable, and there when you need it. The software provided gives you an easy to use network monitor which gives you the option to connect to what network you wish, save the network as a profile, and show the best link connection/speed. It has support for USB 2.0 and also USB 1.1 so it will work great on older computers. It is compatible with Windows 98SE, 2000, ME, XP, and also Vista. It has two wireless network modes 802.11g and 802.11b and is also compatible with 128-bit encryption....

Review of Linksys Compact Wireless-G USB Adapter WUSB54GC

Freecome DVD RW Recorder USB 2.0

Advantages: ummmmm
Disadvantages: Doesn't work very well, slow, intermitently recognises disks, poor back up service, need I go on?

...I ordered my Freecom DVD Recorder LS USB 2.0 after my CD/DVD drive packed up on my 15 month old HP Desktop. I wanted it mainly to load CD ROM and burn DVD's from movies already converted to DVD format on my hard drive. Being that my PC had no disk drive I relied upon this external drive to load the bundled DVD burning software (Roxio 9). This took several days and many attempts. Then I tried burning my first DVD. After taking 3 hours to do a task that previously took about 30 minutes, this recorder produced a disc that no dvd player in my home recognised (and I have 4). I found the user interface very unfriendly and it simply didn't work. Needles to say, I'll be getting a refund!...

Review of Freecom DVD RW Recorder LS USB 2.0

Belkin Wireless USB adaptor

Advantages: Simple to set up and use
Disadvantages: Software is not the greatest

...I bought this USB network adaptor for my son when he still had his Windows 98 machine as the PCI card that I reviewed previously was too advanced for his hardware. This USB adapter was bought to connect to my Belkin wireless router meaning that I now had a wireless network consisting only of Belkin hardware. --Whats in the box-- On opening the box, there were no real surprises. There was the USB adapter, a stand which would allow you to place the adapter on your desk if you didnt want to have it plugged directly into the back of your PC, the antenna, a quick installation guide and a CD which contained the drivers and a full manual. --Installation-- On reading the quick installation guide, it was apparent that the software had to be installed before the adapter was plugged in. The reason for this was because, when the hardware...

PCI Wireless 802.11G card for desktop PCs

Advantages: Cheap-n-cheerful
Disadvantages: Slow connections and poor range with supplied antenna.

...Mobile 802.11g internal Mini-PCI card.) With the third party aerial I am pleased with this card. A properly configured BSD desktop PC offers a better service than that available from far more expensive wireless access points? once you?ve gone to the trouble to set everything up. Not a product I'd recommend to the non-technically inclined though....

HAVE YOU SEEN MY SIX INCH DONGLE?

Advantages: Simple setup, fast connection, compact design
Disadvantages: None I've found

...% strength, with It never having dropped below 60% thus far. Mbps (Mega-bytes per second) fluctuates but has never dropped below 24.0 - way above the 8.0 my AOL connection tops out at! As mentioned above I purchased my dongle as a reconditioned unit from eBay, this cost my just £10 - purchased new the cost is about double that. All in all a great buy and a painless introduction into wireless computing - four stars out of five. • Tech specs and requirements • • Dimensions (l x w x h): 3.72 x 1.19 x .6 in (94.5 x 30.2 x 15.2 mm). • Weight: 1.13 oz (32 g). • Frequency 2.412 ~ 2.472 GHz. • Wireless Speeds - 1, 2, 5.5, 6, 9, 11, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, 54 Mbps • 64- and 128-bit WEP encryption. • PC: USB 2.0 Compliant, Windows® 98SE, Me, 2000, and XP. • 802.11g wireless standard. http://www.netgear.com...

Review of Netgear WG111 Wireless-G USB 2.0 Adapter

WG302, connect me up before you gogo

Advantages: Good coverage, twin Antenna, easy to use interface
Disadvantages: None

...bad. If like me though you want 100% and its for business then adding a second repeater 302 is also easy. I have never done this before but found it not to difficult. There is a load of information on the net and Netgear website to help out. The two units work well together providing great coverage around the office. This is probably aided by the units twin aerial design to give maximum coverage. If like me you need to have a secure network, you shouldn't have any trouble here. (WEP) data encryption comes as standard for the 302 in a variety of forms. You can also configure the 302 to run on the different network types, 802.11b,g and double g, although I have not yet figured out how to get 108MB. There are also a variety of other features including VPN pass through support, WPA and address filtering. In addition to the twin...
