I bought this and installed according to instructions. It printed the test page fine then a one page Word document. Thirty minutes later when I tried to print there was no response, it said connection was lost and the document lodged in the print queue, could not be deleted. I was forced to reboot the entire system, upon which I could again print a new document, but 10 mins after that when I tried another document the same problem occurred. This happened repeatedly despite trying all the options in the instruction materials. After a nightmare 24 hours trying everything along with about 50 reboots of my PC, I tried to take it back to the shop (of course, they then tested it and said they could find nothing wrong with it and refused to give me my money back. It's an unstable connection and I have replaced with an extra long USB cable with booster which cost a fraction of the price but at least is reliable.

0.5 stars  | on by sean_jefferys

Pros

the concept is great but after attempts with 3 different laptops (Windows XP), could not get it to establish a stable link.

Cons

it does n't work and the online troubleshooting was ineffective

Summary

waste of money

"Not bad at all"

3.5 stars  | on by dragin63

Pros

I have had the wireless printer kit for over a year and I have not had any problems at all. Currently, I have five computers in the house and any one of tem can print from my Hp printer. Even the 64 bit system I built will print wirelessly.

Cons

The software (CD) is not compatible with 64 bit. However, once I am hooked up to my home network, I can print. No problem
