Product Description:
The Linksys Wireless N PCI Adapter installs in most desktop and tower PCs and lets you put your computer almost anywhere in a building without the cost and hassle of running network cables. The Wireless N PCI Adapter uses the very latest wireless networking technology, Wireless N. By overlaying the signals of multiple radios, Wireless N's Multiple In, Multiple Out (MIMO) technology multiplies the effective data rate. Unlike ordinary wireless networking technologies that are confused by signal reflections, MIMO actually uses these reflections to increase the range and reduce dead spots in the wireless coverage area. The robust signal travels farther, maintaining wireless connections up to 4 times farther than standard Wireless-G. With Wireless-N, the farther away you are, the more speed advantage you get. It works great with standard Wireless G and B equipment, but when both ends of the wireless link are Wireless-N, the throughput can be increased even more by using twice as much radio band, yielding speeds up to 12 times as fast as standard Wireless-G. Once you're connected, you can surf the web, keep in touch with your e-mail, and share files and other resources such as printers and network storage with other computers on the network. To protect your data and privacy, your wireless connection is secured by up to 256-bit WPA2 encryption. The included Setup Wizard will walk you through configuring the adapter to your network's settings, step by step.

- Easy to install on Vista, works great
Installed on Windows Vista easily, and works great. As many others have mentioned, I did not install the Linksys Software on the CD, only the Linksys Driver. Here are the steps I followed:

- Opened PC case, installed PC card, and antenna
- Booted Windows Vista (32 bit)
- Opened Device Manager to update driver (VISTA used default BroadCom driver)
- Specified location of Linksys Driver and installed it

It took me about 15 minutes total to install. ... Read More

- Blue Screen of Death on 2x PC's
I purchased two WMP300N's for two computers. One is a stock Dell Dimension and the other is a custom computer with an A8N-SLI Deluxe MB.

BOTH COMPUTERS BLUESCREEN after random amounts of time. I've tried the new and old drivers from Linksys.

These cards are going back.

- Excellent network connector
I used the driver from the Linksys website instead of the CD and this installed without any problem! The network connection with this adapter seems equally as fast as my wired connection, and I can't notice any difference in speed. This is an outstanding product and I highly recommend it.

- Stay far away
I bought this adapter after my my older Linksys USB adapter died on me after years of faithful service. I figured since my landlord had a Draft N router, I'd pick up an adapter to match and figured the extra cost was worth it. If I knew then what I knew now, I could have saved myself a lot of money and a lot of time.

It was a pain to get installed, but once it was up and running it worked great. For about a month. Then I started having issues with Linksys connection manager being unable ... Read More

- Works, but no great.
This card is a major pain to get to work.

I installed first with the software on the cd and could not get rid of the 1 mbps problem. I then uninstalled everything, including removing the reg keys according to Linksys's forums. I also uninstalled my ethernet card and all its drivers.

Finally I let windows install it and just installed the drivers from the Linksys website. It finally works but still does not get great speeds. It gets 4 bars and sits around 80 meg. Every so often ... Read More
