Linksys WUSB54GC Compact Wireless-G USB Adapter Reviews
Customer Rating:Summary: Complete garbage
Comment: I attempted to use a WUSB54GC adapter on a Windows 2000 system which runs a (low-bandwidth) server application at startup. Unfortunately, not only does this unit take 1-2 minutes to acquire a DHCP lease -- meaning there's no usable connection when the server process is launched -- but it tends to drop the lease at random intervals once acquired. (This is in a well-characterized WiFi environment with no interferers and other reliable client installations nearby.)
Installation is poor as well; I had to uninstall and reinstall the device before its configuration service would start properly.
In short, the WUSB54GC is a real piece of junk... not recommended under any circumstances.

Summary: Linksys Wireless-G USB Adapter
Comment: The Linksys Wireless-G Adapter is a wonderful product that comes with a CD to install the software on the computer. Though I'm saving up to purchase the Linksys Wireless-G Router, the adapter performs it's part perfectly on my computer, in that, my computer says it's connected. At present, I'm simply in need of an internet carrier, which the router will address. I researched this product before purchase and same was highly recommended. I'm happy I made the purchase and recommend this product.

Summary: Works as advertised
Comment: This is the second WUSB54GC that I have puchased. The first one was installed on a Windows XP machine about a year ago and it still works fine. The one I recently purchased installed on another XP computer with no problems. Windows XP found the new hardware and installed drivers for it. I did not even have to insert the installation CD. All I had to do was type in the password key for my wireless network and I was done.

Connect your USB-equipped desktop or notebook computer to a wireless network at incredible speeds with the Linksys Compact Wireless-G USB Adapter.

You can plug it directly into your PC, or use the included USB extension cord to put the Adapter anywhere you'd like, up to five feet away. It gets its power through the USB connection, so no power cord is necessary. The included Setup Wizard walks you through configuring the Adapter to your wireless network settings, step by step.
