Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Hawking HWDN2 Hi-Gain Wireless-150N USB Network Dish Adapter
Customer Review: Finally, a Vista-compatible wireless lan product that works with Vista!
Summary: 5 Stars
My computer is located upstairs from the wireless router in my home (Linksys 802.11 type N). The signal has to go thru a wall, up the stairs and through a door. With the USB Cisco type N adapter I was using, I got poor signal strength (2 bars or less) and corresponding video streaming. My laptop's internal Broadcom adapter had even worse reception and was basically incompatible with the Linksys router due to Vista issues--hence the purchase of a Linksys USB adapter.
I ordered the Hawking HWDN2 Hi Gain dish in hopes it would improve my reception. I have burned through several routers and USB adapters that claimed to be Vista compatible. And we all know what a "wonderful" product Vista is--so easy, so universally compatible with everything! Getting back to reality, with each new router or adapter or modem or software app, I had to spend hours on the phone with customer reps trying to make each and every new product work with my marvelous Vista OS. (I will be getting Windows 7 shortly!)
The Hawking is amazing--it actually worked right out of the box with Vista. No hours-long calls to 877 #'s in India or Indonesia. No $9.95 customer service charges like Cisco charged me--the penalty for buying their router and linking it to a laptop with Vista. After loading the driver software and plugging the antenna in and pointing the antenna in the general direction of my router, I was on the net with close to max signal strength. The whole process took 5 minutes and it has worked very well ever since. The antenna now sees 3 times the number of local area networks my other adapters did. Video streaming (YouTube, etc.) now works much more smoothly with almost no interruptions. The software is easy to use as well. Am very pleased with this purchase. The build quality of the antenna is good--for molded plastic. The dish rotates up 90 deg. from the base. It won't withstand being dropped 4 stories onto concrete, but for sitting on a desk, it is more than rugged enough. I most strongly recommend this product. It will fix alot of reception problems. If my Linksys router goes belly up, I will definitely buy a Hawking router the next time around.
