| The Bottom Line | Great range and high speeds grace Buffalo's 802.11g USB adapter, but its incomplete documentation may confuse those new to networking. | The HWU54D's convoluted setup guide will baffle newbies, but tech veterans capable of successfully installing it will love the adapter's awesome performance and versatility. | The DWL-G520 offers solid speed and security, but like all PCI adapters, it's a pain to install. | This 802.11b USB adapter is a solid performer and an excellent choice for home, office, and on-the-go networking. | |
