I bought this adapter 4 days ago and have only been able to make it work twice. I am running W2K Pro so I figured since it didn't work when I installed it, there must be some updated drivers. I was right. But it was the entire installation package that downloaded in a zip file from the Linksys web site. Once I figured out that the installation CD was totally useless, uninstalled and re-installed everything, it worked...for a little while. The range was bettter than my previous adapter. But when I fired up my corporate VPN my system began to "thrash" and act like it had contracted a virus. I had to do a hard reboot, run disk checker, virus scan, etc. When my system came back up, I had to disable then enable the adapter then reboot. It seemed to be working, but it could not find my Linksys WRT300N router that I have been using for the past two months. So, I am still looking for a good wireless-N adapter
