Does the job for me.

I finally switched to broadband, and looked at the wireless router setups to get away from having 40 ft. of telephone cord strung to my desktop. After reading reviews, pricing, and availability, decided on the Linksys setup. Got the Linksys Wireless G router, and got the USB adapter for ease of install and ability to use with my laptop also. No problems with install or connectivity- good choice for my needs.

Works out the box w/Ubuntu8.04
Reviewer: MarkInMi from Michigan on Oct 3, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful

Trivially easy setup in Ubuntu 8.04 works flawlessly. Using WPA-PSK(TKIP). Haven't tried AES nor WPA2 yet. USB extension cable is a big plus. Speed is indistinguishable from Cat5 cable.
If you can plug it in, you can make it work. Wish it were $10 cheaper, but, works out the box with linux is worth peace of mind.

Simple and Easy
Reviewer: KTB from O'Fallon, IL on Sep 30, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful

It was very easy to install. Follow the direction and there is no problem. It was up and running within 3 minutes. Only thing is the size of it. Sticks out about 2 or 3 inches from the usb port and if the usb port is close to the power port it is nearimpossible to plug both of them at the same time. You have to use a different usb or add on usb hub.
