"WARNING: PRODUCT DISABLES LOGON FUNCTIONALITY!"

Pros

It works, sort of

Changes registry; prevents normal logons

Bought it today, installed software from disc as directed. Appeared to work fine. Until I restarted the comptuer. As we have multiple users on this computer, we had set up different account users,so that each kid can have their own desktop, favorites, etc. After installing, only main account user appeared. Searching Linksys database discloses that quick user switching and regular windows logon are disabled by the software because of "GTGina.dll" is embedded in the registry. What is truly annoying and unacceptable is that Linksys gives no hint on how to fix this problem. Only says the adapter could be installed without using their software! Now they tell me! It also warns that if "GTGina.dll" file is deleted from the registry, you may not be able to boot up your computer! From message boards I gather that just uninstalling the Linksys program does NOT remove the problem. This is plain nasty and Linksys should be held accountable -- and reviewe sites liked CNET ought to raise the alarm.

"good name, bd performance"

1 stars  | on by mungo_sd

Pros

it's small and cute

Cons

it has poor performance, I watch movies from a wrt54g 20 ft away & frequently drop signal. A Dlink USB device provides a much stronger signal. I can watch Hulu at 480 instead of 288 with dropouts.

Summary

don't buy one.
