Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Cisco-Linksys WUSB54G Wireless-G USB Adapter
Customer Review: Wireless internet rocks!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great addition to anyone's home computer network, especially if you don't enjoy tripping over piles of wires/cables etc. This worked as soon as i hooked it up to my XP Pro desktop(homebuilt). It connected to my wireless G router right away and i was on the net. I thought i was "the man" so i tried to network my wireless desktop with my wireless laptop, and then my whole desktop crashed and couldn't "find" the internet anymore, even though the connection was strong. I ended up restoring XP to an earlier date, reinstalled the wireless adapter, and was on the net once again. Note to self: Leave networking to the damn pro's...stick with wireless internet...Customer Review: Still works great after 6 years.
Summary: 5 Stars
I've had this adapter for about 6 years now, and it's never given me any problems. I've used it on 2 different desktop computers, and with 8 different wireless routers, in houses and apartments both. The routers were of all different brands, but only 1 of them was a Linksys as well. It's easy to install, and doesn't seem to drop the connection (unless of course it's the router that's having a problem!)
The only issue I've ever had with it? It has to be plugged directly into the computer itself. You can't use a hub with it, it just doesn't work for some reason (though using the adapter cord is fine as long as the cord is plugged into the computer.)
Customer Review: Best customer support I've ever had
Summary: 5 Stars
When I hooked up the adapter I couldn't receive an IP from my router, I assumed the device was defective. I spent a day trying to fix the problem. I eneded up calling Linksys tech support and I actually spoke to a human being without waiting. It took about an hour to resolve the problem which was a result of a bad Windows TCP/IP driver install, not Linksys' software or their product. Their support technicians were competent, knowlegeble and helpful, and patient I might add.
The adapter only cost me ~$50 but the support was invaluable!
It is now working great and I am very pleased.
Customer Review: Great little wireless adaptor
Summary: 5 Stars
I had purchsed a Linksys router and set up a wireless network in my house. However I had a PC on the far end of the house. I dreaded the idea of opening up the box to install a card. Its not something I like to do. A friend reocmmended the Linksys WUSB54G Wireless Adapter. It works great! No opening the box. No fussing with screws. Just follow the instructions on the CD and plug the device into a USB port. This will make it very convenient if I need to use it on another computer that doesn't have a wireless card.Customer Review: Great Networking adapter! Easy to setup!

I just got the adapter today and installed the software first (per instructions) then proceeded to set it up to connect to my wireless network. It worked flawlessly and had no problem connecting to my network which does NOT broadcast the SSID. It worked so much better than the "flashdrive" sized unit I had tried previously from Amazon. I guess it helps to use the same brand components in your wireless network system as my wireless router is also a Linksys Wireless G system. Great product!
