Great Belkin USB product

Advantages: gives you an extra 1.8 meters on any USB product
Disadvantages: none

...that could connect my headset to the computer and let me use it, and this is what I did. I trudged down to my local PC world and paid a little money for a 1.8 meter Belkin Pro Series USB Extension Cable and was very very happy with it when I got home. It is very well made with a nice thick rubber protective rapping over the wire inside so unless you cut it with a knife its not going to be damaged if you full on it a little or even a allot. It supports all standard USB ports with its well made male plug (the bit that goes into the computer) and on the other end of the cable has a nice thick female port (the bit that you will stick your USB device in) I have had no problems with this cable at all, it doesn't suffer from any lag and because it has a thick cable it doesn't snap or damage if you catch it with you feet while its laying...

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...

Review of Belkin Wireless G USB Network Adapter Network adapter

Belkin wireless G USB Network Adaptor

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

...I recently bought a Belkin wireless adaptor when I went into a house share and needed to have the internet. I use the internet but I know little about the technical side of things. I paid £19.99 for the adaptor in PC world who only had Belkin at the time which I thought was not expensive. However installing it was a nightmare. The 3 easy steps on the box seemed so easy; Install the software, plug the adaptor into a USB PORT - start networking! If only it was that simple. Every time my computer searched for a network it crashed. I phoned the Belkin company who took me step by step through the technical part and still we could not get internet. Eventually the Belkin assistant told my for some reason my computer was not recognising the new network. Being increasingly frustrated I considered taking the adaptor back for a refund...

the cable that will last a lifetime

Advantages: strong
Disadvantages: none

...Now iv not done a review on USB cables before, really its just never hit me that I could actually write about these and there’s also the fact that there’s not really much you can say about a cable, but ill give it a go. This is a normal printer cable which means it has two ends, one being the end which goes into any USB port in your computer or laptop, this end is the rectangle shaped end and is called a type A. The other end is which goes into your printer, and don’t worry as nearly every printer made has this kind of end so it will definitely fit, and this end is kind of square in shape and is known as the type B end. It transfers data to your computer at speeds of up to 480 mbps, that’s megabytes a second which is really fast and is about 40 times faster than USB 1.1 cables. The cable its self is 1.8 m...

Belkin Power Cable

Advantages: Works perfectly, Fits Snug, Lengthy enough
Disadvantages: None

...I bought this for plugging in my computer because the power supply I had to buy did not include one. There isn't much to say on a power cable so this is about all I could think of. My main reasons for choosing this where because I knew Belkin is a very respectable brand for when it comes to electronic connector cables and its length suited my needs perfectly. I found that the cable fits very snugly into the back of my computer so that when it gets knocked about for some reason (kicking from mad frustration during games :) ) then it does not fall out. It is easily strong enough to hold its own weight in so it doesn't pull itself out- which is a problem one of my crappy computer monitors was having. This caused me to buy a second one for my computer monitor as I was overall 100% pleased with this one. It has never failed me causing in...

BELKIN USB Adapter (10M)- Connect PC to Phone

Advantages: Small, Sleek, Connects to Phones, Good Coverage, Slim, fast, easy install
Disadvantages: Cap can get lost as it is quite small

...I have had this little product for about 4 Months now and I can say it is a wonderful little thing. The model I have is the: Belkin Bluetooth USB Adapter * Class 2; v1.2 10m This model is currently available for £8.99 on amazon (£3 cheaper than what I paid for it) and I can say it is the best thing I have bought. The reason why I bought this adapter was to connect my phone to my laptop and PC. <<*What it Does*>> This small and sleek adapter enables you to connect 2 or more bluetooth devices to each other wirelessly. This includes devices such as Mobile Phones and PDA's. I have connected both my Samsung D500 and Sony Ericsson W800i to my Laptop all at the same time. The coverage distance for this particular device is 10 metres therefore it makes it easy to pick up the bluetooth signals easily, although a much...

Advantages: Plenty of ports, stackable, simple display
Disadvantages: Yet another power lead, relativley short cable.

...the cables) so i have it blu-tacked to the desk! Occasionally my mouse is not detected upon startup, so have to unplug then re-connect it to force it to be recognised. The cable connecting the hub to the computer is quite short, meaning possible placement issues The hub is stackable (through the top 2 ports) to allow for additional usb ports. I have not tried this, so am unsure as to if another power lead would be required....

Review of Belkin Hi-Speed USB 2.0 7-Port Hub - hub - 7 ports

Belkin Bluetooth USB Adapter

Advantages: Small and Discrete. Easy to install and use. 10m range.
Disadvantages: Not as fast as a serial cable or infra-red.

...This is a great piece of kit. I bought it so I could transfer files between my phone and computer, but it can be used with any bluetooth device such as a PDA or laptop. The manual simply explains how to install the dongle and I installed it without any trouble in minutes. The dongle is USB 1.1 compatable and is truely plug and play. You can disable the bluetooth connection in the dongle settings so you don't have to keep disconnecting the adapter from your PC if your worried about someone trying to connect to your computer. Start using the product, just give your PC a name in the Bluetooth software and any bluetooth device will be able to detect it straight away. The easiest way to transfer files in my opinion is to right-click on a file and select "Send To > Bluetooth Device" You can even highlight multiple files and send them as...

Belkin Wireless G - Cheap and cheerful wireless adapter

Advantages: Cheap, connects to routers of all types I have tried
Disadvantages: Breaks easily, driver problems in Vista

...and if walls / floors / ceilings come in between the router and your Belkin adapter. Problems The Belkin Wireless G adapter has been released in many versions, and I recently tried a version 0, adapter in my vista laptop. This would not function regardless of which version of the driver I downloaded, and this problem could not be solved by people experienced in solving networking issues. I now have wireless internet because I am using the 'E' latest version of the Belkin adapter. The other issue I have with the Belkin adapters, is their vulnerability. Plugged straight into the side or backof a laptop, they stick out by about 3 inches, and can easily be knocked or bent. This can also happen when the laptop is put down on an uneven surface, or while it is carried around. The adapter comes with a USB extension cable, that could be used...

Port Ahoy! Cracking Belkin USB Hub

Advantages: great design, vertical ports for regular items such as memory sticks, led display
Disadvantages: maybe a bit expensive but comparrison but it is quality

...I bought this hub as an impulse purchase but based my decision on: (a) you can never have enough usb ports (b) belkin are a respected manufacturer (c) I liked the design It cost me £12 when I bought it but I think that was the stores mistake as I have seen it advertised at between £19 and £24. Even at that price though this is a good piece of kit. Bearing in mind you can get USB 2 hubs for about half the piece of this one made by companies you may have never heard of, the design and features on this device make it a very attractive and useful addition to your desktop. It has seven USB ports; five on the back and two placed nattily and very usefully on the top. The top ones are what make this great in my view. They are ideal for things you want to plug in and take out on a regular and irregular basis. I use them for usb...
