I installed this PCI card today i heard that it can reach speeds of upto 300 MB connection guess what ITS TRUE !!!!!! I was running the RTM latest Vitsa and it will accept the xp driver from the install CD and it will perform just fine HOWEVER i was upsetwhen i went to play music on my soundblaster sound card it was crackling and skipping grrrrr SO i put good old windows XP back on my computer and both the sound card and the wireless card work FLAWLESSLY !!!!!!!! Stay with windows XP until dlink comes outwith a proper vista driver so it doesnt conflict with other hardware ..........

Easy, do it your self package, good performance, install the software that came with item-the pc had a difficult time locating online drivers. Price could be worked on a little towards the $50 mark. All in all it works great.

Great Network Card
Reviewer: Ernie from Louisville, KY on Sep 21, 2008
1 out of 2 found this review helpful

Installed easy. Worked like it should. The only problem I had was when installing it kept connecting to an unsecured network before I could connect it to mine. Don't know why it did that, but it did it about 3 times before I finally got it connected to mine. That was why I gave it a 4 for Ease of use. It was TOO easy to an annoyance. I've had it now for about 3 weeks and it is getting a good signal(99%) two rooms from the router and throughput is over 100 Mbps. My son plays games on the computer and neverhas any problems with lag or anything.
