Good for the money

Great choice for an older laptop without wireless built in. Auto detected and installed right out of the box. Though Linux and WinXP.

Great product! Reasonable price!

One of my hobbies involves restoring of electronic devices, and one of these is an old notebook computer; rate of restoration and budget thereof is unfortunately dictated by my pension cheques. This adapter allows access to the wireless network presently in use in my home.
